My Dad went to the club every Sunday 12 while 2pm without fail, rain snow or blow.

After we'd finished our Sunday dinner and washed the pots he'd say "Am gunna get me head down for an hour." then he'd Bobby off to bed to recuperate for the evening secession..

Last week I was asked at the Canada customs, what we had bought in the US to which I replied 'odds and sods' . Had to explain it,'bits and bobs' didn't help much.
