Come on in, the water's fine!

[jessicadazzler97]

I'm Jess, known as jessicadazzler. I'm not new to eBay, but I just wanted to say hi.

*big wave* Hi!

If you like, you can say hi too below and introduce yourself, as I don't know any of you on these community boards. Come on in, the water's fine! 😉

You adapt pretty quickly.  When you're a kid and you walk into a shop or corner store deli and ask for a three cent lolly and they give you a freddo frog instead of an ice cream then you learn the lingo.

I suppose the term deli came from migrants (just guessing).  At the time I came there was also a large Italian immigration and some would set up shops selling small goods and continental items.  Now a deli is just a small convenience store. (I think I'm talking Americanese).

No. Deli is an abbreviation of Delicatessen. Which roughly translated means "refined eating".

As against bangers and mash, I suppose.

No, we don't get that here. I get a 1000 channels, but I've never seen it, lol.

Out of a 1000 I only use about 80. On early saturday mornings...The Rifleman! It's on right now.

When I started school, went to a shop - asked in my fresh Norfolk accent for an 'iced lolly' - lady said :"they're all nice love - which do you want?"

I don't think they sold sauerkraut either.

When I was a kid, the local Delicatessen was run by a lovely couple.

Mum wouldn't tell me why they had numbers tattooed on their arms

Don't think they sold sauerkraut either
