Dubious Daftynitions

Dubious Daftynitions.

We also offer a few daftynitions of Christmas:

The policeman's - maintaining law and larder.

The flapper's-shieks and shrieks.

The Scotsman's-high spirits at low cost.

The sailor's-going to see on land.

The bride's-a marry Christmas.

The miner's-getting up without going down.

The postman's-travelling by rail without the post.

The railwayman's–getting everything in train for a rail good holiday.

Our's-making the “bust of things.”

And now, never mind the bawl, let us get on with the game.
