ABC Meme


ABC Meme, originally uploaded by kcm76.

This week’s Flickr meme was an alphabet meme … a word for each letter of the alphabet (but we were allowed to drop one letter to make a 5×5 square. Of course yours truly has to do it all — and put a different (I hope) slant on it by doing the English comic alphabet as first produced by the variety duo Clapham and Dwyer in the 1930s. So I give you the not entirely original …

A for ‘Orses
B for Mutton
C for Yourself
D for Dumb
E for Brick
F for Vescent
G for Police
H for a Beer
I for Novello
J for Oranges
K for Restaurant
L for Leather
M for Sis’
N for Lope
O for a Pee
P for Relief
Q for a Bus
R for Askey
S for Teeda
T for Two
U for Me
V for La France
W for a Bob
X for Breakfast
Y for Husband
