@plainoldme,
I was sitting in a pub with a friend in Hampshire yesterday and I heard this man talking in his very gruff voice saying something about some woman who was involved in some sort of therapy he or someone he knew was undergoing and he says:
'She's a strange bird. She puts mustard on her sausages. She drives around the countryside in her posh car with a duvet and a toothbrush- I'm beginning to think she's on the game though she says she's a 'forensic psychologist' or some nonsense.
She may be a 'forensic psychologist - but I can tell by looking at her that she can't cook a roast dinner!
My friend and I who were sitting there eavesdropping on this fascinating descriptive monologe were almost falling off our chairs laughing- and for the rest of the weekend we took turns trying to replicate this guy's voice and accent.
My friend got it down pat. I was almost peeing in my pants laughing when he kept saying - 'she may be a forensic psychologist - but she can't cook a roast dinner - I can tell you that!
And I learned something new - now I know what 'on the game' means.
