Subject: RE: BS: Walking a dog on wrong side of sidewalk
Wow! A Turbary! That's a new one on me (but then I'm a council-estate lad born and bred, my mum almost died of apoplexy when I told her I was buying my first house!). :-)

My dad always called the footpath (or that daft 'sidewalk' that the colonials call it) the 'Coursey', which I've always assumed was a corruption of 'causeway'.
