I was once delivering a lecture to my A level Photography students on Walker Evans and Robert Frank, discussing their relative merits, when out slipped the word c**t The world suddenly stopped. I hastily checked their eyes for a reaction. Not one of them flinched, thankfully, and I managed not to corpse.

I'd either sent them all to sleep or they thought, "Emma couldn't possibly have said that.

My old dad, god rest him, had a tendancy for Spoonerisms ( or maybe he was just using this as an excuse to wind up my mum..)

A popular favourite when my sister was a kid was the exclamation " let go and deed the *ucks" !
