Alan — Welcome to the GMB.

I know that this is off-topic, but it is a great pleasure to see coddswallop properly spelled.

On 26th December 1993 I wrote to Catherine Scharz, then editor of Chambers English Dictionary, pointing out that "cod's(-)wallop, codswallop" was mis-spelt, and, as it did not appear in Chambers until after the 1959 edition and supplement, it was most likely that neither the source nor the collector had any of the specialist knowledge needed to be able to spell it correctly, and that it should have been flagged as "spelling uncertain" as well as "origin unknown".

After a lengthy explanation of the historical background, I cited two sources, Cox 1977, and Blakeman & Smith 1983.

I also suggested that both codd and hamilton should be considered for inclusion in the dictionary.

Unfortunately I didn't even receive an acknowledgement of my letter.

Finally, if you search on this board for "elsecar", "lillicrap", or "Wood Bros", you will find enough material to keep you occupied for a while.   We would welcome some locally informed input to these topics.

OK Alan,

I will check through for who owns the images and mail you directly tomorrow.

I noticed your site includes a good selection of Target Balls, do you have any colours I have not shown here http://www.ysartglass.com/Moncrieff/MoncrieffProduct.htm a picture would be appreciated. Also have you come across any bottles that can be creditted to Moncrieff or Tomey or Perth Glass or Tay Glass, these are highly elusive and probably never marked unless for some special purpose or advertising.

Hi Alan, if you look up at the blue tabbed link bar (above left) there's a SEARCH MESSAGES option, click that and enter the search terms Bernard suggested in the box (I'd suggest you search for each one separately) and then click the Search Messages button. Hope this helps. :)
Cheers! Anne, da tekniqual wizzerd

AS far as I know you appear to have all the colours in the NB glassworks Target balls there is a simular ball that is the same but a plain band but cant attribute that to any paticular glassworks also many of the other balls were made for gun dealers like Greener and Jones again these were made for them but are like the NB type Regards Alan
