| Oct 18, 2016 at 12:22 | comment | added | Spagirl | I was once misunderstood to be being racist when I observed that it was black over Bill's mother's in an area that wasn't the Black Country (though I never worked out what they thought I meant). I'm still fairly sure that no-one in my Inverness office knows what I'm saying as I trill* tarrarabit* on my way out. But then, people in the Black Country didn't understand me when I was scunnered either. | |
