Elizabeth is 11 today! Happy birthday sweet girl.
Eleven! –> Legs Eleven –> when I was a kid in the middle east we used to play bingo in our village coffee shop. The caller was the Thai barman and he had all sorts of great sayings for the numbers.
Legs Eleven –> pronounced –> Regs Eeereven!
Sexy number sixty-nine (that one made us snicker) –> pronounced –> Secky number sicky nine!
I said, “Regs Eeereven” to her so many times before she went to school this morning that she was right sick of me before 8 am.
Then I packed her off to school with several dozen cake pops and she was a happy girl.
Regs Eeereven seems so old to me. Time is going so fast …
I hope I’m around to annoy her with Secky number sicky nine. It’s highly unlikely, but a girl can hope :)

Thanks Naomi!
I rue the day I introduced the kids to cake pops, way too much work.
Happy Birthday Lizzy! I love the accent adjustments to words – a trip in Mexico was spent playing Bingo – Vingo! (Under the V10 under the V 10 – this is where half the crowd remained as the reward for everything was Tequila so they were pleasantly drunk and confused. Never did they think that maybe they should check for B10)
@Ashley –> Thanks for stopping by :)
I love accents. I have all of these crazy accents that I do and it drives the kids crazy. I do a Mexican one all the time and it make them BERY BERY crazy.
Happy Birthday sweet girl! I love those cakes with little heart on the top.
That great cake, really sweet…
I enjoyed reading this post and hearing about the bingo callers.
Unfortunately nowadays lots of the bingo calls such as two fat ladies –>88 are being clamped down on by local councils who say they’re pollitically incorrect.
Personally I love bingo calls and think they add a lot to the game!
