Britpicking questions
Jan. 18th, 2007 02:17 pmOkaly dokaly - I have a few britpicking questions for my flist... (yes, they're dumb and yes they're random but they're all important to a plot...)
1.) What do you all call mudpies? Do you make mudpies (I assume you do as it seems a universal childish thing to do)? I know here in the US, there's a ton of names for it that are fairly regional so I'm looking for London-ish.
2.) What's a sandbox called? Were there sandboxes in public playgrounds say around late 1960s/early 1970s? What sort of childhood games would be played back then? Did you have things like 'Red Rover'?
3.) Veins - do you have slang for them?
