The word "Grogg" a common word used at Goldings which referred to tea or in earlier days any liquid, is a Royal Navy word from the early part of the 19th century.The sailors who were based in the West Indies were allowed a half pint of Rum a day,but Earnest Vernon who was sent out there by the Navy to improve the standard of it's sailors made them mix water with the rum to stop them getting so drunk,and he wore a coat called a "Groggan" so there after the sailors called it "grogg" So was this word introduced to Goldings from Watts Naval School?

A good evening to you John,as regards Bill,please don't send him to me,cause if he's anthing like Peter Drummond when he was here he ate the house out and never put his hand in his pocket once! No I stand corrected!he did once when he was looking for his ticket home! When he was at Goldings,the teachers used to say "Peter Drummond is in the Army!" it took us three years to work out what they meant.They never reached his pockets.
