Bum Bag or Fanny Pack? You Decide!


Bum Bag or Fanny Pack you decide!
As part of my light hearted post season(needed after doing my counselling homework!), I thought i would create a new fun thing!
As a Blog ambassador for the UK i thought i would help solve some English/American Issues.
Especially when it comes to some problems of words being misused!

Bum Bag or Fanny Pack: Which one makes sense to you? Vote Now! I know both sound funny but which do you recognise as an accurate description of the image.

  5. Erika, that comment has rocketed you even further in my estimation...

    Claire, this is just plain carry-on & you know it...BUM! (hee hee, runs away...)

    BTW Someone's been leaving comments scattered around my blog in a quite transparent attempt to reach No.1 They'll be on the end of a severe e-spanking if it keeps up ;-p

  6. Hhmm...I'll have to go with "bum bag" - if I really have to choose between the two.

    I lived in London for twelve years before moving to Sweden, and fanny has somewhat different connotations for me.

  7. Well I know it as a fanny pack...but that doesn't necessarily mean it to be so. To me Fanny pack sounds more polite than "Bum" pack. But that is just me.

    Yes now that is a funny thought and I great way to start my day.

    Cheers Happy Monday!

  8. Bing typically British...(note the accent...LOL)..I'd have to go for BUM.......FANNY would make me think you were wearing it the wrong way round!

  9. I've never heard them referred to anything but "fanny pack" so guess that is one reason I'd vote for that term. "Bum" pack - just doesn't sound right to me.

  10. honey you are wrong on both counts i'm afraid. it is called a fashion faux paux. now if you have one in your closet, please go throw it away. now. before anyone sees it. and honey, put it in a plain brown wrapper first and don't let anyone know you are the one that threw it out, okay?? (whew, i have to keep teaching these young ones.) sigh....

  12. I never knew why it was called "fanny pack" either -- though that's what it is called. But not worn over the fanny.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog.
