So and so

 My mum, back in the 50s and 60s, used to describe the occasional person - usually women - as "a right little so and so". It's a term I even roll out occasionally when I'm sounding like my mother.  The meaning was never clearly defined, you just worked it out from observation. People who were active, opinionated, ambitious, and assertive were what I think she was referring to. Tall Poppy syndrome maybe, a bit of 1950s ingrained societal misogyny? I think I may have grown up to be one of those people, at least in comparison to my family. A little more likely to disagree, to have strong tastes about what I did and didn't like or would do, to maybe question some norms, and be a little more vocal. Hence the play on words for my blog to remind me how to do stuff!
