Interesting I grew up in the N of England and never heard that term. Cheers

Cuddy wiffer in the north, without the "T" The old man was a cuddy, also forced to write with his right hand at school

That would have been in the 30's

Must be certain parts, certainly wasn't a Yorkshire saying.

It's definitely not a Liverpool term for a left hooker that's for sure, this is the first time I've ever heard (or read) it

Thanks Ronnie for confirming that it wasn't the fevered imagination of some weird southener, its been interesting hearing other lefties experience at school and attempts to 'normalize' them like they should be. I was appalled that the practise continued in the 70,s but thankfully we live in more enlightened times now. If no one minds perhaps now it's time to close the thread
