ABI Brother queried Mother when she was complaining of pain in her bingey. What are you saying Mother? What is bingey.
As she was telling me the story on the phone, I became a little alarmed. Do I really want to know about my mother's bingey, pronounced BIN-gee.
I very much doubt that any of you foreign types will know the answer but maybe one or two Australians will without using Google.
More about your bingey tomorrow. Please do not email me photos of your bingey. Thanks.
not a clue, sorry.
ReplyDeleteSee in the morning Hels. I found it so interesting.
DeleteHad to resort to google. First result returned couldn't be right but I think I know now. I'd never heard it before. I wonder if it is regional?
ReplyDeleteMC, I did not get an immediate result from Google, but I did find it. I don't know if it was regional. I think not.
DeleteI have a guess. I googled and found the word but no definition. I am waiting with bated breath.
ReplyDeleteI would be too Jackie.
DeleteI'll take your word for it that I shouldn't look it up!
ReplyDeleteThe answer is now up Steve.
DeleteI cheated and looked it up, and had a delightful read on other Australian words and expressions as well. Do you have the word "hiney/heinie" there? A bingey picture is less risque than a hiney pic at least :D I hope your mother's pain resolves.
ReplyDeleteJenny, I do know of the word hiney but I had forgotten it. I don't think it was ever used by non Aboriginal people though.
DeleteColour me clueless.
ReplyDeleteI thought you may have known EC.
DeleteOh my gosh. You had me laughing hysterically on a day that required 3 wine coolers. In quick succession.
ReplyDeleteMy job is done Debby.
DeleteOh, do hope it's not too bad.
