<x-tab> </x-tab>What about
the other ring, common in children from the UK, the ring-around-the-calf.
Mostly found in Primary School children during the long dark wet winter
months when Wellies are a common footwear. As you'll probably remember,
the ring is an almost constant feature among children who develop a love
for Paddington and have to be surgically removed from the beloved
Wellies. <br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>I wonder
if Compo went to his grave with the ring, he almost certainly had one
around-the-collar.<br>
