I am definitely a Putterer then, I have to say I have never heard that term before John, it must be the same as Pottering surely.

Definitely pottering round these parts.

Google says 'pottering' is the older form. Puttering's probably another American bastardisation.

Never heard of "Puttering" but Pottering is used a lot in fact having just retired I find that I'm pottering around quite a lot.

Definitely Pottering down here, interesting about the American 'bastardisation' of the wording.
So over there you wouldn't be pottering in your shed as we do, it would be bastardised - as in taking it up the a***
Sorry to lower the tone but those yanks have to be different just as they are with the word aluminum not as we say aluminium !
