Pandy

Father Dolan came in today and pandied me because I was not writing my theme.

"Pandies," he said. "I bet you...How many boys here...How many of ye - would sooner be pandied rather than endure dentention.?"

They maun be kindly, coothy, an'commanding -- also severe. Carry sweeties i' their pouches as weel as taws, an' gie them fairings as weel as pandies. In short, they maun be able to endure privations of every sort.

During all the years he had lived among them in Clongowes and in Belvedere he had received only two pandies and, though these had been dealt him in the wrong, he knew that he had often escaped punishment.

Rafferty said it was good practice & it would toughen you up so you didn't feel pandies.

OK? so I'll slap my pandies and you can all cower down into your anoraks and we'll leave on non-speaking terms!

Spurs in the navy shirts with yellow shorts (as QPR played in white shorts), many of the players wearing red mittens to keep their pandies warm!

thanx...bit by bit mine knowledge of the universe expands. that sounds like heavy labour...and my pandies will get dirty
