Survey: have you ever been addressed as "duck"?

If yes, where?

I've been addressed by it several times, all where I live (it seems quite common in my home county)

Last night my dad was addressed as duck seven times while buying petrol in Matlock, Derbys.

Update:

@ Lolz - I live just up the road from you, Matlock, to be precise.

    Yes. I have a couple of friends living in Chesterfield and Sheffield and everything is "Cheers Mi Duck".

  • I guess it's a midlands thing then because everyone says it here, particularly older people, I quite like being called duck though, I think it's endearing!
