Product Information

A police spokeswoman said: “Around 9.05pm on Saturday February 5, officers were called to the Munro Place area of Elgin, following a report of a disturbance. Police were called to the Elgin street by a member of the public, and a crowd of around 40 people was dispersed from the area near Foggies. The expression old fogey came into being in the late 18th century. It was used then to refer specifically to old and infirm soldiers. An old fogey is someone, usually an elderly man, with old-fashioned or conservative attitudes and appearance. What's the origin of the phrase 'Old fogey'?

Well, here I am, on the eve, or rather on the day, of visiting a rich old fogey of an uncle, who has not been in London for these forty years. Police raced to Foggies Bar and Lounge on Munro Road in Elgin at around 9pm on Saturday after reports of the incident. In the 19th century 'old fogey' began to be used outside a military context, to refer to someone who was old fashioned or out of touch. An early example is in the comic play The Duel, or My Two Nephews, by Richard Brinsley Peake, 1823: A Scots pub has apologised to customers after two men were arrested following an alleged disturbance outside the establishment.During the last week, a recruiting party of the Old Fogies had decoyed a number of young lads, by means of intoxication, &c. at which the friends and comrades of the deluded recruits were exceedingly displeased and disgusted. The apparently related term ' old codger' is in fact not related at all. That was derived by a separate route. Fondly imagining themselves all the while to be leaders - or unworthy young foggies - yet still of reputable character. Old fogies were soldiers who were to old and infirm to undertake active service and were used to recruit younger men. The first example of it being used with that meaning is found in the London newspaper The Although, after the early 1900s, old fogies didn't have to be soldiers, they still had to be old. The uncle referred to above was later described 'the venerable baronet'

He continued: “Two men were arrested in connection with the incident and will be reported to the Procurator Fiscal.” ‘Certain individuals that can’t respect anything or anyone’Eye witnesses in the Moray town said a large group of people had congregated outside Foggies Bar and Lounge on Munro Place at around 9pm on Saturday. Fogram and fogey appear to mean the same thing and one may be a variant of the other. Sadly, as we don't know how fogram derived either, that's not much help. All in all we can't be sure how 'fogey' originated.
