Surprised that nobody's mentioned scratch in its golfing connotation.....

We say "playing off scratch" when referring to a player without a handicap - would've thought this was a global saying.....

Sometime in the dim and distant past I mentioned my favourite made up word...'roonerspism' - surely "vroom with a hue" falls into this category?

And whilst on the subject....heard a childhood favourite again the other day after many years. The one about the guy with a toothache who, every time he broke wind said, "Honda!"

A case of "abcess makes the fart go Honda"
