    Surely it's only scrumping if you are raiding someone else's orchard, or in my youth a bit of "garden 'opping" to a neighbours solitary apple tree :joy:

    When we went to play football or cricket it was at the Rec.

    I still say ‘see you later’, meaning an indefinite time, people from out of Yorkshire, think I mean later the same day.

    Was listening to the Sisters of Mercy t'other night, and my favourite song of theirs brings up the use of "while" to mean "to, until": Nine while Nine.
