Child A took a toy off child B.

I asked if he could give it back as B was playing with it.

He said "I can't. I've got a bone in my leg!"

I haven't heard that for years and it sounded so funny coming from a 3 year old who was so serious about it :laughing:

Thought my generation was the last to use that one: lovely to see it's still in circulation.

It ranks alongside the answer to the eternal string of "why?" "why?" "why?"................

...........cos Y's not Z, and that's final. :D

We also say Y is a crooked letter and Z is no better.

Never heard those sayings. My Nan used to say 'Cut it out!' a lot.

My teacher used to say "because of the dogs".

We never understood it, but then we never understood his lessons either. :rolleyes:
