I once overheard a neighbour use the phrase "nig nog". I asked my father what it meant. As quick as a flash he said, "It's a type of biscuit. A bit like a hobnob." Can you beat this? BTW: We're keeping this thread open for an extra week as we're enjoying the stories so much.

When I was young (a long time now!) Our family always holiday'd around Polperro and Looe.
My mum worked bank holiday's quiet regulary and would remark excitedly that she was having a day in leiu on tuesday. I was gutted that she wouldn't take me along. Although i though it was a long way just to go out for a day.
