Subject: RE: Penny for the Guy - Mister?
Half past eleven on bonfire night, mid- Derbyshire. One single firework about 3 hours ago.

Salford? Back in the early 70s I remember some kids with a mongrel on a bogie, asking for "penny for the dog".

But on the other hand when I said I came from Salford recently, someone asked which bit, and I told them, Irlam's o'th' Height, they responded "Ooooh posh!"
