Weird conversation we had today at work. Do you call your female friends 'mate' E.G...."what you up to today mate?" Blokes call each other it all the time, but is it weird to say it to a lass? And lasses of CS, do you call people mate?

'Mate' is used for people I don't know that well tbh. If they actually are a good friend, they get 'man'. I call women 'whores'.

Calling them all 'treacle' is best. That way you don't have to remember their names.
