[QUOTE="DrWazzock, post: 7361833, member: 2119"] A few Lincolnshire words and sayings Neither good wool nor arselocks - A variation on "nowt nor summat". Dackering - as in an engine misfiring, struggling or stalling. Kebbing - heavy breathing of an animal with pneomonia or exhaustion. Sheep trottles - Sheep dung. Squad - mud, with the "a" pronounced as an "a" not an "o". Slap - clean, as in broke the gate slap in two. Mawk - maggot. He went as white as a mawk. Gathman - the man who does the gathing. (feeds and beds the cattle). Are you doing the gathing over the weekend? Now then - hello. Always amuses the non native Mrs when I'm on the phone. Its always nice to fall into a bit of local dialect with a true local but they are getting rarer nowadays. [/QUOTE]
