My experience of 40 years English shooting it at variance to this scenario,,,could you give dates and locations where you last saw it happen ? Our peasants are an endangered species these days and we keep just a few in zoos to show to the children as an example of what happens if you don't eat your greens.

As our language becomes impoverished,,our thinking shrinks to fit.
