Scudge, instead of excuse me. I still say it now and people have no idea what I mean. Scudge over please.

But now I'm thinking is it a word my family made up? Because nobody recognises it, and Google comes up blank unless I'm spelling it incorrectly? I thought it was a northern thing but maybe not.

Usually going past them in the opposite direction in the school corridor. These days, as adults, perhaps on an escalator with people going in the other direction being potential victims. They need to have a big five head showing to warrant it.

Just terrible.

"Deacon" was derived from a disabled man called Joey Deacon. He was a running feature on the kids TV show Blue Peter in the mid 1980's. Even for the time bastardising his name into an insult usually aimed at children by children was low.

There are no words.

Anyhow, my word is chinned. This meant someone was going to be involved in a fight after school. "You're gonna get chinned after school" or "I'm going to chin you after school". Being chinned or chinning someone did not involve the proactive use of anyone's chin being used as any kind of weapon or attack strategy.

There you have it.

Chinny reckon round here in the early 80s. I'm sorry it's no longer in general use, as in most work meetings I get the urge to say "chinnnnnnnyyyyyyy" at least once.

When I was really young we used to thumbs up and say "swinging" and thumbs down and say "dodgy". It was the catch phrase of a famous comedian Norman Vaughn in the late fifties and sixties.
