A school playground rhyme, often exchanged between friends on the first day of a new calendar month. Pinch, punch, first of the month and no returns of any kind. It's sort of a good luck tradition or maybe just an excuse to punch someone in the arm. And if the other person goes, ah, a slap and a kick for being so quick, that's legal. But you can block it by saying a pinch, a punch for the first of the week with no returns - they don't have the right to kick you.
Finally, here is the third part of this series about English slang words and expressions that most British people know, but which will probably confuse almost everyone else! I started this series in 2019. It's only taken me nearly 4 years to get round to finishing it. Learn loads of slang and culture, plus a bit of British history too.
