Pet names

Just Dear and Darling, though when I remember her name I use that

I don't use pet names as such, but generically, as Spec uses "dear", I use "pet". Leicester people tend to say "duckie", my Lincolnshire cousins say "me duck", and I believe up north they use "hen". What's the local equivalent where you live?

Where I am now it's duck, was very strange for a Londoner

The guys use "pal" a lot.
