I know when we visit our lad in Cornwall, his next door neighbour, who is very friendly calls out, “The grockles are here”, which is what the Cornish call tourists.;)
Must remember to let his cars tyres down, next week:diablo:

Lincoln .7

His neighbour must come from Devon, ‘grockles’ is Devonian for tourists, whilst the Cornish call them ’emmets’.

This thread is slightly confusing, most things posted on it are either not inventions and are only discoveries (PMN,Bruggen 130) or fall outside the 20th century (usually by several hundred years!) So I gave up and handed it to Mr Crapper ( I did add the word ‘ever’:p)

Was the flushing toilet ‘discovered’ from the animal kingdom?:confused:

Baz

I seem to remember some years ago the best invention ever (in the world), was decided to be the flushing toilet.

Three years ago I buried my favourite cat under the nose of my Spitfire, she was with me for over twenty years before she passed on.
We were inseparable.
She only kept one secret from me and that was the hideyhole for her little yellow toy mouse.
I was moving furniture around this afternoon and found it tucked behind the hi-fi, along with two unopened packets of crisps and a pile of elastic bands.
She often helped herself to crisps and was able to open the packet and scoff the contents in a single sitting but, I never knew about her ‘hoard’.

Funny things, cats

Three years later and I still miss her:(
