    Whistles ... lol

    So yesterday on our travels, we pass a large building which is being renovated. Then suddenly there a about half a dozen workmen hanging out a window giving me wolf whistles. We stopped and a lifted me cilt a bit n showed em a bit o'leg n they started cheering and putting their thumbs up and one shouted 'nice one butt'. Gave the mrs and me a good laff.
    Other than that, it was another normal cilted day.

    Perhaps you should explain the meaning of the word "butt" here in Wales?

    Hiya butt or nice one, butt or how are you butt ...
    Butt is a word used certainly around south wales as a way of greeting either close friends or strangers ... instead of hiya mate, or simply Hello .. its said by many as Hiya butt or hello butt. Thats the best way I can describe it ... Tref butt would be able to explain far better than me I am sure.
