albert smith 803 Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 Mmm a bit off topic but I’d not been to this topic before but when I saw the posts- click, my mind went back to my railway days and a particular night shift where we were able to have nearly an hour’s ‘snap time’ in the comfort of the shunters cabin. Our guard was a newly arrived Pakistani who was finding ‘English’ difficult due to a lot of these dual meaning words, the first night was quite a laugh explaining some words he had written down! The 2nd. night the shunter dictated this passage from a newspaper cutting he brought with him saying that a Professor had tried this on 7 colleagues & had 7 different results. “A pedlar & a cobbler sat beside the roadside listening to a peal of church bells whilst eating a meal of the pairings of peeled pears and gazing with unparalleled ecstasy at the symmetry of a ladies ankle as she pedalled past the cemetery.” This is ‘as printed’, I made 2 errors, the guard was ‘lost’ but my driver, a crossword addict, was 100% but said the Professor had a word wrong and on being told we agreed with him, do you think so?
