DeborahSmall Love it! 😂 ‘Hen‘ is also a Glaswegian reference for females. I hated being addressed as ‘hen‘ when I was younger. It is used by, mostly, women from older generations 💕 7y

LeahBergen @DeborahSmall Like a “hen party” or “stagette” (although I think the term most used in the US is a “bachelorette” party?). Thanks, Hen! 😂😂 7y

DeborahSmall 😂😂 when I was reading that, “thanks hen” was in a guttural Glaswegian accent which is just not you! Can‘t stop giggling 😂😂 7y

Sure, he was Emperor of France but he also wouldn't have minded being #KingOfTheWorld.

Hobbinol No wonder they thought Rasputin had magical powers-- that is some wand! Thanks for the penes! (Poor Napoleon-- they could have preserved it in a baby food jar) 7y
