Doubt if it will ever be written, by the time they gaet around to it they will not be able to put it in text form.

Could have hit on somethink here, Follow the link the overhead railway ran from Seaforth Sands in the north of Liverpool to the Dingle in the south, The Dingle Hoof, Could be a saying that goes way back it was the only stretch of the Liverpool overhead that ran for half a mile underground, Bored out of the cliff face through Herculaneum Dock in the south of the city, Now that could be expressed as a { HOOF} Regards Dennis Terry.p.s. Also look at the second link its a view of the HOOF passengers would endure entering the Dingle underground station also the Docker,s Umbrella. Re,Terry.

Dingle railway station - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



Disused Stations: Station

Dennis read all of the second link the Dingle Hoof, Dingle took passenger,s from the south of the city to the Aintree Grand National Race course. What has a {HOOF} A horse sounds about right to me Re, Terry.

Maybe the Hoof has something to do with the Aintree Iron. Terry.

Quite possible m8, But unfortunately Mike Mc
Artney{ real name, Paul McArtneys brother] allias Mike McGear, swears to take that line to his grave Regards Terry.:confused: Just a footnote to this it is quite a common term used by scousers as any of them on the site will tell you, its regarded as a drudge example{ To Hoof it for miles} Terry.

I used to know Mike, met him a few times and he would not tell me.
I tried to get him to tell his brother to buy the QE2 when it was up for sale for £50,000,000 not a lot for him. I was last with him at the grand opening of the new Cruise Terminal when the Duke of Kent unveiled the plaque. We were both guests there.

Just one question,
Why would it be a term used to discribe an ejeet?

Hi Dennis, try a peek at urban dictionary but don't tell your daughter. A dingle is a deep hollow.
