Karuuna, my dad always said "gum bands". He died 6 years ago at the age of 88. I haven't heard it since. I thought he was the only one who said it.

second batch:
>Knee socks
>front porch (sometimes a lanai - a veranda is usually a covered area like a lanai close to the ground - a porch usually has to be stepped up to from ground level - a gazebo is a covered area unattached to the primary building)
>rubber bands
>sofa (or couch which is a bad habit because a real couch does not have a back on it)
>trunk
sorry, I got carried away!

Kitt, I've been waiting for someone else to say "settee" and that's you, with me! Is "settee" that uncommon? Glad to see it!

I know what you call rubber bands, Vee: Rubbers! That's English, isn't it?

Now I have no idea what you call socks and porches--if it hasn't been mentioned already. So confirm (or not!) and spill!

I didn't list my answers cuz they are the same as most everyone else's.
