A TOG is The Old Geezer, a TYG is of course, The Young Geezer. A geezer is one who dressed up in strange clothes and went round demanding money with menaces, during the long dark English Winter, the origin of Trick or Treat. They went out in disguise or 'guise'. I have quite often got the bus back from town, only to find that the car is still where I left it, in town.... I've also spent ages trying to persuade a traffic warden that I had bought a ticket, when the offending ticket was in fact firmly in my purse or hand!!!

If we were any more stupid, we'd have to be watered twice a week.....
