Re: Yellow stoning

great link in previous post by yerself just curious to know if donkey stoning the front step was limited to Lancashire and maybe yorkshire , wonder how far south/north the custom was practised . Anyone know if the cockneys/brummies/geordies and those north of the border ever used them ?
one of my Grandmas favourite sayings ........."yons a dirty ****** , bloody idle to do her step"
re. Junettas reference to "dolly blue" ..... brings to mind the old copper boiler and the tin bath hanging up on the backyard wall and tippler toilets
