no real redneck will ever use such a word no matter how pukka it is.

May Wisdom and the knowledge you gained go with you,

Hi Jim

Glad to see you in the forums today.  Interesting sentence.

Does this mean you are a pukka redneck?

thanks Jim

Pukka is a very pommie word from early last century - round the first world war era.  It was used mainly by the poms when they were in India.  Pukka sahib is a phrase that comes to mind.  Means 'genuine master' or 'proper gentleman'.

Oh and for those that don't understand "Strine' 'pommie' is Strine for Englishman and 'poms' = several English people.... 

regards,
Judith
