We drove past White Knobs Way in Caterham the other day. A quick scan of its residents revealed it to be apposite.

Post subject:  Re: Bits and Bobs 50

How is gammon now a thing? How do these things start, how do they gain traction. Is it one person on one tweet and it snowballs?

Author:  Cras [ Thu Jun 07, 2018 17:19 ]
Post subject:  Re: Bits and Bobs 50

Yeah, pretty much. And that one snowballed primarily because it's so hilariously apt. The comparison was first made by Dickens, apparently.

Nicholas Nickleby, indeed.

" "‘The meaning of that term — gammon,’ said Mr Gregsbury, ‘is unknown to me. If it means that I grow a little too fervid, or perhaps even hyperbolical, in extolling my native land, I admit the full justice of the remark. I AM proud of this free and happy country. My form dilates, my eye glistens, my breast heaves, my heart swells, my bosom burns, when I call to mind her greatness and her glory.’”

I'm not sure whether it's drawn from that, or whether it's appeared on its own and it just so happens that the current users weren't the first to draw the comparison.

I suspect the latter.

So do I. Especially as the modern usage is, I think, slightly more inspired by the red-faced complections of resting old white guys on Question Time. So not quite the same thing.

When I drive colleagues to the pub on Fridays, I managed to be grown up a couple of times but now find myself unable to avoid going the other way - down Cockshot Road. I shout "Cockshot!" as I do so, obviously.

A distance in the other direction is Bell End.

I think the real crime is that so many of you think that salad cream is a viable alternative to mayo.

It's like mayo, but actually tastes of something.

Salad cream and mayo are complementary, not either/or. They have different uses.

Agreed.

Mayo for eating.

Salad cream for putting in the bin.
