They didn't.
In came the Taggertys. They were clean, except Biddy knees looked like she had been crawling half a mile in some muddy place.

Did George sign her name as Georgina in Five in a Treasure island on a note.

Probably not, as "yep", "ye", "yeah" etc are all just short/slang for "yes".

I like to say yep. Saying yes all the time makes you sound all bored and boring. :evil: :evil: :evil:

Actually, "yes" is polite, and the proper word. I do say "yeah" in casual situations. That's not the point, though. You're not allowed to answer "yes", so you're not allowed to answer "yeah" or "yeh".

7up wasn't answering a question. She was just confirming Loony the Dog's answer. Over to you, Loony!

I know this is an old thread but it looks interesting! Seen as no-ones posted for a while here's the Q:

Q: Was the woman that looked after the children in The Secret of Spiggy Holes called Mrs Dimity?
