~FUN TRIVIA~
In Shakespeare's
time, mattresses were secured on bed frames by ropes.
When you pulled the ropes the mattress tightened, making
the bed firmer to sleep on. Hence the phrase "good
night, sleep tight."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In English pubs, ale is ordered by pints and
quarts. So, in old England, when customers got
unruly, the bartender would yell at them 'Mind your
pints and quarts and settle down.' This is where
we get the phrase, "mind your P's and
Q's." | |
