Under the equal time clause of the blogworld constitution, I now present for your amusement and consideration, a list of things that are old:
Old Spice (an after-shave lotion)
Old Orchard Beach, Maine
Old Hickory (nickname of U.S. President Andrew Jackson)
Old Kinderhook (nickname of U.S. President Martin Van Buren)
Old Ironsides (nickname of the USS Constitution, a naval vessel)
Auld Lang Syne (a song sung at midnight on New Year's Eve)
Old Grand-Dad (a brand of bourbon
Old Man River
Old Dominion (the U.S. state of Virginia)
Old Mother Hubbard
Old Faithful (a geyser in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming)
The Old Man And The Sea (a book by Ernest Hemingway)
The Old Curiosity Shop (a book by Charles Dickens)
Perhaps you can think of a few more.
Truth In Blogging Department. As far as I know, there is no blogworld constitution, and it therefore follows as the night the day that there is no equal time clause.
Age, like newness, is relative :)
ReplyDeleteI can think of a few local roads:
Old Canterbury Rd
Old Windsor Road
Old Princes Hwy

DeletePerhaps the most famous 'old' in UK are Old Trafford, famous football ground in Manchester, and Emirates Old Trafford, home of Lancashire county cricket.
ReplyDeleteI hadn’t thought about it until now, but I would hazard a guess that the most famous ‘old’ in the UK might be Old Bailey. Maybe I’m just showing my age. Thank you, Janice!
DeleteArsenic and Old Lace is a favorite of mine.
