PeterR Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Round t'lump meant the same as round the block to me as a child in Grimesthorpe 1943 to 1957. That is to say, if you could turn first left at each junction and eventually arrive back where you started. Or for that matter, turn first right at each junction for a different view point. A yoos teh gufforra ride round t' lump on me bike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
