I didn’t “forget” all those other mongers. There can only be four things in the four main!

@ntlk Damn, back to the drawing board! They’ll cause trouble if they’re not in the four main.

@slavin_fpo In the U.K. it doesn’t have the connotations of old, cranky, etc I think it does in the US. “A good bloke.”

The four main mongers: iron, fish, cheese, gossip.

@crouchingbadger I wonder, if i order something from Chocolatemongers Direct, will they send me a free galvanised tee-hinge?

@gwire I have not had the pleasure!

I’ve occasionally received small sweets with online orders but never a Double Decker, the best of chocolate bars. Thanks @ironmongerydirect!

@michalmigurski Ooh, congratulations! They are lucky.
