   • 1991 January 14, Alice Thomson, “Knuckling down to the new realism”, in The Times, page 26:

     The college system protects you, but it is very unfair to say that people at Oxbridge are not living in the real world. They do have some odd slang. ‘I'll p-hole you in the plodge’ meaning ‘I will leave a note for you in the porter’s lodge’ is just one example.
