Re: How lanky are you
 

Regarding a previous post by "Moi" Is there ANYWHERE in Lancs that sells savaloys??

Willow is so intrigued (she tried one and hated it) she has suggested that next time we travel south, we call at every (almost) chip shop to find the most northerly one that sells them:rolleyes:

I am pleased to be able to announce that I too qualify for the flat cap, whippet and gout. That was a bit too easy really though.
I had always been under the impression that thick sandwiches were called doorstops precisley because they were thick enough to put in front of an open door to stop it closing. When I was younger, I had to suffer one of these made with Lancahire cheese every afternoon on my return home from school. It was like trying to eat a slice of mattress, they took ages to eat! Although I am something of a cheeseaholic and will try anything, the more obscure and "ripe" the better, I cannot now look at Lancashire cheese without feeling sick.

Well I got 9/10. Never heard of a thick sandwich being called a doorstop/step.

Probably 'cos I never had a thick one.:o
Sken didn't mean 'look' to me. Skenning was when one deliberately crossed ones eyes as in cross-eyed and grandma would yell at us telling us not to sken or we would stay like that:D

Think the word Twang applies to any area of the country, or indeed areas within a county, like there's a different twang, between blackburn, darwen, bolton, manchester and so on.
have friends that moved down here from Glasgow 30 years ago, an I still can't understand them. :eek:

Re: How lanky are you

Sorry, that's a terrible pun, but another one I wasn't able to resist!
