One would go good dog rather than good boy.

God forbid! wash your mouth out shock another here taught by Catholic nuns absolutely no slang or profanity of any kind, even the mildest would have been positively vapour inducing.

None here either, and I still remember P3 teacher’s contempt for the words ‘get’ or ‘got’. I still try to avoid using them!

I agree with *Sago. We had to speak properly or there were consequences.
