I like it when the bus stops at The Old Vic theatre and the robotic voice calls it with this distinct sense of nostalgia, as if she’d spent a great portion of her youth treading the stage there and was thinking what could have been.
It sort of goes ‘The Ooold Vic’. Boy, I’ve got tales I could tell you about that place.
I’ve returned from a long weekend visiting relatives in Newcastle today. I love pet. I am now determined to continue to use pet as my general catch all term of affection.
Wife - pet
Kids - pet
Dog - pet
Cat - pet
Wider family and friends - pet
Work colleagues - maybe not.
I would happily have used it with past work colleagues. However, I’m currently working out my notice in my current job. It might seem a bit odd to start using pet in that context.
