Sorry in advance if I offend an entire county but wtf is it about people from Derbyshire and their obsession with ducks, it just sounds a bit daft when you aren’t from there. An example is the old bird from Chesterfield T.Stop, it’s at the end of EVERY sentence ,…Yes duck, tomatoes or beans duck, tea duck, £5 please duck, thanks duck, here’s yer change duck, ta duck, see ya duck, then to the next guy …yes duck… and on it goes again, the first time I went in I did just that just for a laugh… ducked every time she said it to me, but she didn’t get my humour and maybe thought I had some kind of affliction as I saw her talking about me to her mate and they both stared at me as I ate my brekkie
But seriously where does it originate from. (this post has got to be more random than one of Toby’s
)
it’s cos’ their all quacker’s…
sorry it had to be done, cheer’s duck…
What did you have for breakfast duck ? Bread quack

After 10 years I find myself doing it more and more, yet I took the ■■■■ from my mate, it actually follows the coal miners.

Years ago in Salford it seemed like every one was called chuck. Ey up Chuck, what have you got on Chuck, back it on there Chuck .
Its just a friendly manner in our county…duck…in nottingham its ducky…sheffield everyones a love …better than her saying cuppa tea ■■■■ ?.
Same as southerner’s using love or darling on the end of their sentences, after 6 years in chesterfield I now use duck a lot, annoys my southern family members off
