A real world Halfbakery

Bring your crap ideas and we'll patten them or give you a fish! There could be a chain of halfbakery stores across the US&UK!

(??) Patten http://upload.wikim...a8/Chris_Patten.jpg
understandably upset by Atlanticist slant of the idea posted. [calum, Feb 10 2006]

[Slaith] Please put this into category "Halfbakery:realisation" ..and what's 'patten'? patent? pattern?

If you're going to be handing out fish, then I'll see you every Friday.

Patte(r)n them? Like tartan or something?
-- zen_tom, Feb 10 2006


Patten (n.) Any one of various types of wooden-soled footwear, such as a sandal, shoe, or clog, worn to increase one's height or to keep one's feet out of the mud.

Presumably: Patten (v.) To kick/trample/jump on something whilst wearing your pattens.

Platen? To flatten them down into some sort of hard disc.

Or possibly Patten (v): to emulate the General.

P.S. why just the US&UK?

/patten/

I once got this for my hind end.

I bought crap patten in Thailand for my girls . I was so excited that I had finally succeeded in haggling for the first time. Besides, the boots looked great. First thing when we got home, my daughter put them on, and was on her way to check them out in a nearby puddle, but before she reached the door the sole broke off.
