I do giggle but I keep on reading your handle as Sa Shag

and I think woo that's a bit fruity

lool

I was a Senior IT Consultant with #PwC and, in 1989, I was working at North West Water with some American colleagues.

At an end of project gathering, one of the American consultants asked if I'd like a "shag" which I thought was a bit forward 😲

It transpired that in US English, shag has a different meaning to that in UK English 🤦😜😂

@TCMuffin @sashag a shag is also a bird. I understand in Birdwatching circles when you see a certain bird like a spoonbill you say "I have had a spoonbill"

So....
