ReplyDeleteI've tagged you x
I remember at my grandparents cottage, when I was a kid, they had a plaque on their toilet/bathroom 'yer tiz'. I have always presumed it meant 'here it is'? I would love to have more time to study regional dialect. I have lots of Devonware, purely because I love the motto on the side. x
ReplyDeleteSal: Mr Snippets was soooooooo close to being tagged..... I thought he might give tagging a different slant.... and then I "chickened out".... (having read your post I am muttering "dammit" under my breath, because I think both you and he would have come up with something original!!)xx
ReplyDeleteHi, All the best with the project! You inspired me to look up some Devon Dialect. Interestingly 'bloggy' apparently means sullen ... yet we bloggers are anything but!!:)
ReplyDeleteBy, heck, looks like it's gunna be a gud 'un:) Thanks for cheering me up and making me smile, Sal:)
