It's certainly not Northern slang is it? I'd never heard of "chav" and still don't know what it's short for??Linda Beaumont said:Bonjour to all my friends!
Glad I wasn't the only 'ignorant' one here... living in foreign parts, I seem to be lagging in my comprehension of modern slang! (o)<

Well not really as I'm wearing white trainers now!!!!!!!!!! :-Oturkish van said:They go by the name of 'neds' in some parts of scotland (and maybe england). Think burbary caps, sports trousers and tops, or skinny jeans, timberland shoes or incapable-of-getting-dirty white trainers without laces. Quite unmistakeable really! Oh and don't forget the colourful language. If you can't spot the white trainers first, you should hear them from a fair distance away.
Does that help?!

None taken,it's quite nice to be fashionable for once!!!!!! lolturkish van said:No offence meant! White trainers are just one part of the uniform. :bounce:
Oh dear never heard of Townies,Pikeys,Little Britain or Vicki Pollard?Kits said:They are also known as Townies or Pikeys. Obscene hand/finger gestures, language are also part of their appearance. Very thick, but cheap, gold necklaces, bracelets, sovereign rings, huge hooped earrings. Think Vicki Pollard from Little Britain .....
