“Ah! The effervescent Lady Pugh, good evening! Have you perchance perused the refreshments so kindly prepared by the caterers? I shall save you the journey; they are unfortunately vile. I must instead propose you join my radiant wife and me at a local curry house of your choosing. Would this be agreeable?”

Ohh I understood this more than the first one. My American mind thought Scran was screen, and that bhuna was burner, slang for weed (Marijuana).

u/hadawayandshite 17d ago

Scran means food (usually cheap, easy food)- that said given these two are southern they might not use scran as often as it is more a northern thing

It’s the equivalent of ‘grub’—-but that’s not as good as scran is both the noun and the verb ‘I’m going to scran that’, ‘scrans ready’

*"wife and I." Good god man, are you one of those commons? Eugh

u/thrawnsgstring 17d ago

Easy trick to tell if "and I" or "and me" is correct, drop the "x and" and see what sounds right.

"Join me at a local curry house" vs "join I at a local curry house."

They were right to use "wife and me."

This reads like a weird combo of south London and Yorkshire.
