[Slaith] Please put this into category "Halfbakery:realisation" ..and what's 'patten'? patent? pattern? |
|
|
If you're going to be handing out fish, then I'll see you every Friday. |
|
|
Patte(r)n them? Like tartan or something? |
|
|
Patten (n.) Any one of various types of wooden-soled footwear, such as a sandal, shoe, or clog, worn to increase one's height or to keep one's feet out of the mud. |
|
|
Presumably: Patten (v.) To kick/trample/jump on something whilst wearing your pattens. |
|
|
Platen? To flatten them down into some sort of hard disc. |
|
|
Or possibly Patten (v): to emulate the General. |

I once got this for my hind end. |
|
|
I bought crap patten in Thailand for my girls . I was so
excited that I had finally succeeded in haggling for the first
time. Besides, the boots looked great. First thing when we
got home, my daughter put them on, and was on her way
to check them out in a nearby puddle, but before she
reached the door the sole broke off. |
