Maybe but OH's family are Manchester born and bred and he just looked at me funny (I'm kind of use to this!) when I mentioned it. Will have to try his mum, she's more reliable for things like this!
Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.
Which one are you and is it how you want to be?Comment

.....with yellow dots in our family. Dad came from Manchester, Mum from London. Don't know whose version this one was, though I suspect Dad's. No finnan haddy though!Comment

Ours was just sky blue pink with purple spots on or just spots, can't quite remember. I do remember it was used as an answer to blo*dy obvious questions.
For instance, "whats that?"
"It's sky blue pink with spots on, what do you think it is?!"
"what are you doing?"
"I making / reading / painting sky blue pink, what do you think I'm doing!?
Inquisitive child? Moi?

Ah, now our answer to the bl***y obvious was as follows.
Me - What's that?
Dad - A crutch for lame ducks.
or - A whim-wham to wind up the sun
or - a lay-hole for meddlers.
That last always had a vaguely sinister sound suggesting that if I got in the way I'd find meself buried!Whoever plants a garden believes in the future.

Oh how I wish I had a good memory - I'd be storing those away for my beloveds turn as the inquisitive one if I did. I particularly like the whim-wham answer.
And I think if I'd have got the lay-hole answer I've had skedaddled out of there before I got buried too. Very subtle (Yorkshire?)man your dad.
