chrishall 10 #1045 Posted April 8, 2019 (edited) Don't know if it's been mentioned earlier in the this thread but when I was little and misbehaving mum would threaten me with 'gitneff', don't know if I've spelt that right. I never knew what or who gitneff was but it used to scare me! Edited April 8, 2019 by chrishall Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

lovelace 24 #1049 Posted April 12, 2019 Hi All, Anybody remember these "dips" when you had to decide who was "on" next at Tiggy etc,, (when kids used to actually go out to play as a group) ? Some I remember are; Up a ladder, down a ladder in dictation How many pussycats went to the station, Close your eyes & think. "Three"? 1 ... 2 ... 3 (that person's out) If you do not want to play, take your hook & go ay-way With a jolly good slap across the face, just like .....THAT. (person gets a "slap" & is out.) ------------------- Eeny meeny macaracca, dare I dummaracca, chickaracca bom bom French. ------------------- Dip dip dash, my blue sash, Sailing on the water like a cup & saucer, dip dip dash. ------------------ One potato, two potato, three potato, four, five potato, six potato, seven potato o'er. We must have been daft! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

trastrick 866 #1056 Posted April 12, 2019 (edited) Why do I still remember this nonsense? My mother said I never should play with the gypsies in the wood If i did then she would say naughty little girl to dis-o-bay I had a bonnet trimmed with blue do you still wear it yes i do when do you wear it? when i can when i go out with my young man my young man is a very nice man tries to teach me all he can reading, writing arithmetic he doesn't forget to give me the stick When he does he makes me dance out of England into France out of France and in to Spain over the hills and back again!
