We all have family in jokes that only you and your family will understand but today we're looking at sayings and terms that maybe you only say within your family! Or maybe you call something that isn't the norm and your family thinks you're weird? Does your family have a saying or a term that's foreign to outsiders?

Candy, or as it's known in the UK 'Chocolate and Sweets', has a lot of dubious history around the world but perhaps nowhere more than the UK.
