 N is for -

 

  • Nappy – diaper

 ***

O is for –

  • Oldies or Olds - parents or grandparents.  

 ***

P is for –

  • Prawn - I’ll probably never use this but it needs to go in. Prawn = shrimp
  • Prezzie – present, gift. (Chrissie prezzies = Christmas presents)

    nuff-nuff     or nuffy: idiot, like the person who smokes while they’re filling the car’s fuel tank, someone who just never “gets it”..
