What's a phrase or saying your family used that you assumed was universal, and when did you find out it wasn't?

Growing up, any leftover bit of food had a name in our house, "the snodge." Last roast potato, end of the loaf, whatever. You'd ask "do you want the snodge?" and someone would claim it or nobody would and it'd just sit there. Completely normal to me until I was about 20 and used it in front of someone outside the family. The look on their face. Still genuinely don't know if my nan invented it or where it came from. submitted by /u/IV-Manufacturer to r/AskUK [link] [comments]

15 April 2026 @ 9:02 am
Hi everyone, I’m in a bit of a juggling act with debts and savings and would love some advice. Here’s the situation: Debts: • Barclay loan: £5,053.39 at 16.8% APR, paying £425/month • Credit card: £4,394.62, 0% until 2028 • Overdraft: £992 Income: • Full-time: 32 hours a week, £40k salary with around £500-1100 in commission a month • Part-time: \~6–7 hours/week Savings: • £5,000 “rainy day” fund (untouchable) • £5,000 ISA Other: • £156/month for a trip in June I want to pay off my debts efficiently (especially that brutal 16.8% loan) while keeping my savings safe and still working toward buying a house. My questions: 1. Focus solely on the high-interest loan first, or spread payments across everything? 3. Does the tiny part-time job affect taxes or repaymen
