More tea vicar?

[Bbbananas]

Does anyone know where this catchphrase first originated?

My (first) ex-mother-in-law, now deceased, used to surruptitiously fart all the time at the most inappropriate times. Whenever she let rip, & it wasn't of the SBD type, rather more of a car backfiring or duck-call type, she used to say "Ooh, more tea vicar?"

I never liked to ask why. Or what sort of relationship she had with the vicar.

Terrific line on an old comedy show when somebody farted the vicar said "I'll name that tune in one"

[bensmum]

In my neck of the woods a response would be "No but I'll have another fcuking cake"

[joggerjayne]

LOL bensmum. So you love in ... what ... Harlem? The Bronx?

=0)

[dustypuss]

if you had the vicar round for tea and some one said somthing out of turn or inappropriate . you would ask the vicar if he wanted some more tea
this would stop the inappropriate conversation in its track and you could then change the subject

you MIL used this to steer the conversation a way from the fact that she had just Fart*d

[Bbbananas]

obviously a very classy neck of the woods bensmum?!!

[carrust]

When you got a lull in the conversation during a visit from the clergy..."More tea vicar".

[joggerjayne]

LOL at "duck call" fart noise.

So not always all that surreptitious then, salla ?

Hello!

Whenever Father used to visit us (usually to ask where we were on Sunday) he always refused tea, but never a whiskey. And would pat my mother on the bum, i remember.

My new sister in law farts out loud all the time, and burps, and I find it most disgusting, but don't know whether to say anything or not - what do you think?

[bensmum]

Sorry - otherwise engaged! I live in Hampshire actually, not posh but not exactly a ghetto either!

[Gormless]

Gosport?

[bensmum]

Uh no, Gormless - do you know what Gosport is like?
I live near the New Forest

[Bbbananas]

My man moors his boat in Gosport marina. I have been there many a time.

JJ - the duck call fart is one of my favourites. along with the bubble-up-your-back one. :-)

[Gormless]

I was once driving to sunny Fareham and took a wrong left to Gosport just before ASDA but I managed to turn round before I got there. It was a close call.

[bensmum]

I like the duck call description too

[Bbbananas]

I lay there of a night, up on t'deck, glass of wine in hand, gazing at the beautifully and topically-lit spinnaker tower, and fart like a buckfummad. You should see the ripples on the water - nary a duck goes by without thinking it's getting a mating call.

happy days.

[bensmum]

LOL sallabananas!!
Next time I'm in Portsmouth I'll listen out for you

[dustypuss]

duck

[Bbbananas]

If it's more of a tidal wave than a ripple - run for your life. It means I've been on the chilli.....

[joggerjayne]

"buckfummad" ??

Now, salla ... I'm sorry, but you definitely made that one up!!

I'm sure there's no such thing, whether of the farting variety, or otherwise.
