Where I almost permanently encamp these days

In my cellar?

 

Don't be silly, clearly its Under the stairs. Wishi is the new Harry Potter

 

Was expecting this to feature a picture of a toilet and be a barnstorming tale of RHC and IBS

 

Any ideas? Why would you be sat on the bottom of the stairs?

 

Could be half way up the stairs?............are you Kermit?...........or Miss Piggy?

 

Disappointed nobody remembered that this is exactly where RHC ends up most nights and all

 

Wishi is too pissed now days to make it to the top.

 

That was Robin the Frog

 

Was it?..........in that case...............FFS

 

Robin the frog? Sounds like a French bank job.

 

Maybe this is wishi's way of telling us that she fell down the stairs several days ago and no-one's found her yet?

 

Whatever it is, I bet it's something sideways...

 

Might be the greatest thread ever and we just don't get it?

 

Maybe we're just not getting the right angle...

 

Maybe we don't give one.

 

We still talking about the step or you gone onto sheep?

 

Maybe it is the old expression of amazement "Well I'll go to the foot of our stairs". Northern expression which I have never really understood. Definition from Internet below:-

This originated in the North of England. It did travel to others parts of the UK during the 20th century, notably the Birmingham area where it was commonplace, but not much further, and is little known in other parts of the English-speaking world. It is now less used than previously, although it is still staple fare for any writer wishing to write a part for a stage northerner.

There are also less well-known alternatives with the same meaning - 'the back of our house' and 'the bottom of our garden'. All the variants were too low-status and colloquial to have been written down and I can find no printed examples of it until the late 20th century. The expression is certainly older than that and I have a clear recollection of my parents using it in the West Midlands in the 1950s and I would guess that it is older still.

Beyond that there's little more to tell. Exactly when the phrase was coined, by whom, and what it refers to, I don't know.

 

That's NOT ****ing funny

 

Thanks so much for this
