I knew mews from my trip to London last year. I really like the sound of laird - it sounds like you're saying lord with an accent.
ReplyDeleteAh, lorries. Gotta love British terminology!!
ReplyDeleteWe use a lot of British terms in Australia, so I knew all of these, sadly we wouldn't use lorry all that often. Laird does sound like lord with an accent.
ReplyDeleteBermudaonion- lol, you're right.
ReplyDeleteKelly- Yes, I agree.
Louise- Yes, it does.
