Fifi Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 Can't count, make that three One of my university-educated sons swears blind that 'a couple' means 'a few'.. Maybe it's a modern thing.. > I remember on a few occasions at the Safe-Morri-Field deli counter asking for 'a couple of those' only to be then asked by the young person on the other side, 'yes, how many would you like?

Guest Anonymous Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 ^^^^Well Fifi, I thought about posting a dozen photos. But then I realised that in these days of decimal counting, and well educated students, a 'dozen' doesn't mean much.And after the "Yowe on da banks" picture,,,,, My pictues just couln't compete.

Guest Anonymous Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 Perhaps the picture I like the best, for so many reasons, is this one.I don't know how to post a picture like this here, so here's the link:http://shetlopedia.com/Image:Dunrossness_Pano_2.JPGIt's a stitched together panorama of 6 images from Fitful Head, showing the whole of Dunrossness.You'll have to click on the image, then zoom, to get the best of it.

But then I realised that in these days of decimal counting, and well educated students, a 'dozen' doesn't mean much. I'm a baker's daughter and could confuse things further by talking about a baker's dozen! Jings, they have it easy nowadays - we had pounds and ounces; inches, feet and yards; pints and quarts; furlongs, chains, you name it. Never mind pounds, shillings and pence. Arithmetic were a lot 'arder in those days.. Fifi > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
