FORK is the winner:DNot a saying or a word but something I'm wondering.
Two common customs here are to have a smoke at a wake (similar to passing the pipe in olden days I think) and to not eat meat on Stephans Day. Think the latter is a Northern thing. So do many here know of or do these?
And c'mon grape!!

Never heard of either and my man knew good few of these sayings/traditions. Surprised she not know the smoking one as she loved it and it that that killed my father.
By northern do you also mean more protestant? Still never heard.

By northern I mean Ulster, it's definitely not a common one though as you hear so much about turkey on Stephan's day.
I think we should invent a new tere,. A frape already exists so guess we're going with Grork 0 -

Ah the creamery cans! We have only a couple left here, neighbours 'borrowed' the others a few years ago :mad:
Our collectors name is still on the lids of them.
Think it's a P McCafferty or McClafferty, can't remember for sure now.0 -

Photo doesn't work
Do you mean this type? We still use those here for water as well. Weren't they a single milker or something....for doing single cows?
Dairy people I need help!

That is a ten gallon churn.foxy farmer wrote: »Around here they are called churns. My uncle had another type as well. It had a wide base and tapered up to a neck with swinging handles. Remember seeing them being painted with aluminiun paint back in the late 70's.
That sounds like a twenty gallon churn.
An old woman arrived at the creamery with her two churns and was greeted by the new manager.When the churns were emptied he commented on the dirt on the churns.
She replied"If I turned up your arse could you be sure it would be any cleaner"0
