Someone 'dibbed' you in, or, is it 'dobbed' . . .

Edited by becky (06 Dec 2022 8.50am) Many years ago there was an Old Etonian in our office, who thought he should put me right on a few things. First, a gentleman never referred to a dinner suit - he said dinner jacket. And I can still recall his resigned look when I used the word jacket - one should refer to it as a coat. I have never heard either of those strange usages, before or since, but I suppose that's what you go to Eton for. Perhaps any OEs out there might like to comment.
