which wind begins with F? expression or saying

Callback to a question asked while trying to figure out how to play mah jong

Origin

The set we had at Greenmantle included Roman characters on some of the tiles, particularly N, S, E & W for the winds. There was also an F on the green dragon (& some other letter on the red dragon). We never really knew whether it was genuine confusion or one of Dad’s jokes

Collector

Dad – 1980s
George Iliff – father of Mark, JM, G & Bel
