Oh and the phrase " fu**ing Ada "
Never heard this: surely it's "make sure you're home for lunch" in the morning and "make sure you're home by tea" in the afternoon? You can tell that you're not from Moulsecoomb, if any of us were sent out with a packed lunch, it would have been nicked by 10.00
But you do still hear the phrase, we say it to our kids at the weekend and during the holidays
Address all my old mates and my sister this way - so I hear it every week
There are those of us who don't travel to work by car. I can tell you that when you cycle to the station in winter, it IS a bit parky out there (and I'm not afraid to tell people). It does confuse the Americans in the office though
Always thought the Sussex version was " a bit hutchy"
Often wondered who Ada was.
British Bulldog may be the greatest game ever invented......do kids still play it?
'Well I'll trombone thee with me new sunglasses on'
