Puffin4 Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Was this Frank Ronksley at Nether Edge Grammar in the first half of the 1950's? If so we were in the same form. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old tup Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Here is a saying I heard one morning in the Barnsley area,I thought it funny and fitting at the time!.It happened in a paper shop around 8am,I nipped in for a paper,the shop was very busy people queuing waiting their turn when this little old dear pushed her way to the front!.She must have been a regular as the shop owner who was a double for Uncle Fester asked"Can I help you love?" "Ar has tha got Exchange and Mart?",he passed it to her,then she flicked through it keeping everybody waiting,found what she was looking for closed it turned walked out leaving it on the counter!.Exasperated Uncle Fester looked at everyone and said"Well did ya see that its enough to make you grind ginger with your arsehole!",at which we all burst out laughing,it cheered my morning up that day!.

willybite Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 Just because dictionarys attribute other meanings to 'cockled' does not mean our version is wrong, just that they did not do their research thoroughly. If you let others dictate their standards on and to you ...then they will. cockled ower..however you choose to spell it can mean anything from not vertical to turned upside down. A pet hate is people trying to tell others how to spell both yorkshire and sheffieldish. It is spelled the same as most people spell things. If you are trying to spell it phonetically to enable correct pronunciation please stop putting t' in wherever you feel like it. Its typical of none native speakers and makes the writer look a prat. something on a shelf is .....ont shelf almost becoming one word on t' shelf ...looks as though it was written by an ignorant academic here's one more for the list..... laikin ... also not in any standard dictionaries ... meanings dependent on context playing messing loitering hanging around ....distinct from loitering . . hiya. opn ended, arsortit, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
