    not terms of endearment but when in a rage with him I call him a name for as he does me too rude to print - would come across as verbal abuse we now say them in a quieter voice as general name when no kids present

    I call mindees honeybun and sweetpea - or sweetpeahoneybun

    DS is called Bo by me - from when DD aged 2 could not say his name properly - also Bo Bo Bunny (but not now he is over 6' and nearly 16!)
    Happy to be back with the Greenies

    It's not difficult to confuse you

    Here in Stoke people call anyone duck or shug just like in Brum they call you bab

    What I can't understand is why do Stokies call men the Master?? He's a man!!!
