So, can anyone settle a pub debate?

Where does the phrase 'sing to a T' originate from?

Never heard it, is it used in the same context as "...down to a t"? Which I believe is;

Down to a T has been shortened from Down to a tittle (the cross of a t)

When handwriting, most people omit the dot on an i or a j so when you suggest something is "down to a t" you're saying it's perfectly right, As in, they have even added the tittle.

Again though, not sure where it originated.

Wanderer has the lurgy. The word lurgy comes from the simple word allergy.
