When was the last time you used the word "purred"?

[Kumquat]

Or is it just posh people.

 

[The Buttery Biscuit Base]

Ive never used that word in regards to a human emotion or reaction.

Very much just posh people.

 

[Bladders]

Possibly a film with Terry Thomas or Leslie Philips in....

 

[Buzzer]

Not just posh people:

"You use your tongue purred-ier than a twenty dollar whore"

 

[MissGull]

My cat purred

 

[Saltydog]

My car purrs all the time and purred yesterday

 

[Lincoln Imp]

Just IMAGINE the media storm if, say, Ed Miliband had done this.

But i'm more wondering does Cameron think of the Queen as like a cat? Or is it just a word that posh people use to describe happy? Or is he just patronising? I'd never describe someone reacting to something positively as "purring".

Often when talking of my car

This does the beg the question : Does the Queen actually listen to Dave when he is speaking on the phone? My suspicion is that her butler picked up the phone and said 'David Cameron maam' Queenie in the middle of a bacon sarnie and the lie detector on Jeremy Kyle test roars back 'Put the Royal Feline on and tell him it's me'

Queenie gets to find out if Tyler is indeed the father of Chardonnay's baby. Dave gets to bang on about the Scotch and not be interupted. Everyones a winner.

She wasn't purring, she hung up on the tw@t and he was listening to the dialing tone purr.

Purrings just a midddle class staid form of rejoicing, they dont let it go like the working class.

 

[Pavilionaire]

The Queen should take a leaf out of William and Harry's book and lighten up. If she was happy Scotland voted NO then she should say so. We all KNOW she desperately wanted a NO vote, what sort of monarch of the UK would want any other outcome?? Cameron having to apologise for his remark is a farce.

 

[Danny-Boy]

Not just posh people:

"You use your tongue purred-ier than a twenty dollar whore"

!And Don't call me Hedy, it's HEDLEY!"

Blazing Saddles one of my top 6 films EVER.

Dave was mis-quoted. He was referring to the Queen,when discussing Scotland, how she "purred" the tea. It was Darjeeling of course. One has Earl Grey in the morning.
