Never heard of skenning emma, but I have heard of '' she skenned like a basket of whelps''.

And also when you had mucky ears as a kid they used to say ''she is growing spuds in there''.

Has anyone heard of Dickie's meadow? If so, where is it?

WillowTheWhisp · 16-03-2005, 14:59

No idea where it is but we were often in danger of ending up there "if we weren't careful"

also if you had holes in your socks ,you were said to have spuds in them .or they were more holey than godly ,

skenning emma was said rather than bloody hell ,,she must have been one poor little kid ,(did you ever see those horrible clinic glasses with jam jar bottoms)
we said skenned like a basket of whelks,dont know if thats the same ,,

Oh thanks for all these memories.

I'd forgotten loads of these until reading them here. My Dad often went to see a man about a dog. There was another one we remembered this afternoon but I've gone and forgotten it again now.

My Mum was always so busy she met herself coming back.

My Dad on the other hand was often "blowed" or in danger of being blowed. As in "Well I'll be blowed!" when discovering something unexpected, and "I'm blowed if I'm going to tell you again young lady!" when I wasn't taking any notice of him............... strong winds around Accy or what?
