You get asked (in our canteen) if you want "spread" ....or not! If you want butter you have to buy a pat (or two). Being asked butter or marge must have died out.
Glad to hear the consensus is that I didn't imagine Mr Partington's words!
Our horrible teacher taught gym - she sent me off the hockey pitch for swearing after I was whacked in the mouth with a hockey stick by my best friend. I was most miffed because you're not supposed to lift the stick above your shoulder so it was actually a foul!! Not that it bothered me or stuck with me or anything!
I know, in context foul language was worse than a foul when you're 12-13'ish but I didn't think it set good sporting competitive standards to punish me when actually the whistle should have gone for the stick above the shoulder thing. Harrumph! (notice I didn't swear at all when recalling this story).
B3, i got a cold shiver down my back when they started talking about garden diaries.....I can't even be bothered to remember to label seedlings, never mind write notes about them in a diary

Foul language, Cloggie

We played lacrosse. The most boring game invented. It could only have been improved by a smack in the gob
So did we, B3. Not the game for someone under 5ft tall...
I've come here to hide
There's people on anther thread talking about writing garden diaries
I'm feeling inadequate
I'll join you B3
Years ago I did a plan of the garden but given that I'm forever moving things, it was a waste of time.
