Pro-nunn-ciation

Well, Mr and Mrs Nunn have been to stay, and were reasonable well behaved. For once. However, Mrs Nunn has a unique way of speaking. And if you wish to speak Mrs Nunn-ese, then please find below a Mrs Nunn dictionary and pronunciation guide:

Bedroom = bear-drum

Buffet = boofay

Chihuahua = shi-wow-wow

Obama - oh-bam-ah

Posthumously - pos-thumb-osly

Rabid = ray-bid

Repeat (as in a TV repeat) = Ree-peat

There are more which escape my mind currently but I will add them as they occur to me.

So a sentence from Mrs Nunn might sound, "Someone call Oh-bam-ah! There's a ray-bid shi-wow-wow in the bear-drum eating the boofay! And the CD player is stuck on ree-peat. At this rate I'll be hearing it pos-thumb-osly!"

Of course, this would depend on several things:

- Mrs Nunn knowing Obama's phone number

- Having a buffet set up in the bedroom

- A rabid dog somehow making it to the UK and somehow getting to Loughborough, and into my parents' bedroom

- Mrs Nunn even attempting to operate the CD player.

And the least likely of all of those? The idea that she could operate the CD player. The others all sound par for the course in the Nunn household.
