Originally posted by Caroline I was surprised my partner didn't know what a 'shippon' was, coming from as nearby as Rochdale........ Love of my life didn't know what "to side the table" meant - they obviously never do that in Wallasey![:o)] He didn't know what a "clubman" was either!

Linda, In Barnsley we "mend us fires" "weer us coyts" and "bray us bairns" if they don`t "frame" as they "did owt ter do", or if they "laike" abaht. Wives are "our lass" Husbands are "yon mon" children are always "bairns". Boots are "booits", schools are "schooils". Niver mahnd, Cheerio,Bill.

Caroline, We seem to be back in business, thanks Martin. Wasn`t the stand used to hold fire tongs etc in the hearth called a "Tidy Betty" hence the term "bettying"? Somebody will know. Cheerio, Bill.

Is the meeting still on for 16th April in the Eagle & Child? If so, who's going and how will we recognise each other?

Linda, As far as I know, YES. You`ll know Joyce and me, we met at New Year, I believe Noel will try to get. Lady G will make it if she can, she has my contact numbers. We will be there for 12 noon, visas applied for, passports in order, coming M1/M62/M61 then from Chorley exit. We can make ourselves prominent, I`m the scruffy one with Joyce leaning on a stick. Cheerio, from over the Pennines, Bill.
