@MagnaAulae @JAMOGRAD @HiddenYorkshire Interesting. Now being investigated further. It's striking that the New Zealand evidence tails off in the 1940s, significantly before the UK revival/reinvention. And no indication of just what the term meant in NZ. #ongoingresearch
@JerMButterfield @sturgios @OED Noted. The great thing about the OED being online is that, in John Simpson’s words, it is a ‘moving document’, which can be continually updated. #ongoingresearch
@JHCPAL Well.... Every potential addition has to be researched and the evidence assessed, and I don't know when that will happen. But the suggestion has been noted. #ongoingresearch
@JerMButterfield Older Than You Think, no. 93: interestingly, the earliest example on our books at the moment is from a Virginia newspaper of 1830. #ongoingresearch

@JerMButterfield @scriptwren @Cantwara_ Now on our radar. Earliest evidence at the moment is for a reflexive use: this from the Evening Standard of 9 Jan 1830.
"In general, when he overlaid himself, we lay till seven o'clock; but when he got up, we did the same."

@JHCPAL ‘Liggy’: noted. Here's an early use in the ‘marble’ sense, from the Sunday Sun of 13 Jan 1929. #ongoingresearch

@JemButterfield @OED If Donne (and Thomas Adams and Charles I and Robert Southey) can, then we can. Also: antedating noted. #ongoingresearch
@JHCPAL Noted. Whether he was the origin of the expression, or whether he was so called because the expression was already current, remains to be established. #ongoingresearch
@susie_dent @BBCr4today And has been since, it would seem, around 1953, when the naturalist Ronald Lockley's daughter came up with the word (see below from his book ‘Puffins’). Unless anyone knows better? (#OED doesn't yet have an entry.) #ongoingresearch

@JHCPAL Interesting. I've just noted (for when the OED entry is revised) that it appears to survive exclusively in NE England: recent @BNArchive exx, back to the 1930s, are exclusively Northumberland and Durham. #ongoingresearch
@JHCPAL @JulesT737 @TyneSnapper Noted. Still in use as late as 1988, as in this from the Shields Gazette (admittedly from a reminiscence of former times). #ongoingresearch

@JHCPAL @mazst Update: earliest known example is this, from the Tyne Mercury of 7 Sept 1802. Anyone know of anything earlier? #ongoingresearch

@JHCPAL @TyneSnapper Well, it's in the OED as a verb, of course, but not as a noun. In fact it goes back at least to 1966, and isn't just a Geordie term: this is from 'Come Back, Geordie' by Scottish-born Canadian author David Walker. Noted. #ongoingresearch

@JHCPAL @SouthTyneLibs ...and now, @JHCPAL, I have looked into it, a bit. In fact references to Jarrow Slake go back at least to the below, from Henry Bourne's History of Newcastle, which may be quoting something even earlier. Noted, for when the entry gets revised. #ongoingresearch

@JHCPAL @n_docs The full reference enabled me to track down the text in the Surtees Soc volume. Looks good to me; colleagues are now looking at it. Thanks! #ongoingresearch
@Real_James_Hogg @qikipedia And here's a pre-Austen use of ‘dirt cheap’, from a 1766 collection of verse by ‘Janus, Junior’. #ongoingresearch

@JemButterfield I can push it back a little: this from Ralph Lockwood's 1835 historical novel 'The Insurgents'. #ongoingresearch

@MajorHughJanus @BGatesIsaPyscho From my #OngoingResearch looks there is a way. Are U willing to do the research & use your decernment ❓️

So who was the first #Veep? Seems it was Alben W. Barkley, #VP under Truman. Now traced to a syndicated newspaper story of 11 May 1949, a few days earlier than OED's earliest. #ongoingresearch
