Here's a fascinating snippet from the lovely Susie Dent....

"The word ‘oxymoron’, meaning a contradiction in terms, is from the Greek for ‘sharp’ and ‘dull’, and so is itself an oxymoron."

[Mervyn and Trish]

There was me thinking it meant daft cow

[qbman1]

You clearly need a one to one with Susie !

You lived in Northampton? I lived in Wellingborough and worked for Radio Northampton.

When we lived there Radio Northampton hadn't been born … you must be a lot younger than I thought

I am But crikey. We were there 32 years ago. You must have been there with the dinosaurs. And tragically missed my programme.

A tad more than that, we could only get a decent reception on Radio 2 on our radio.
