Jiffle = cross between a jiffy and a whiffle?
I know what jiffle s, cos i use it.. though i thought it was one of those family words... its a cross between a jiggle and a shuffle... you do it when you cant sit still... get the jiffles. I am a jiffle arse, apparently.
Lady L has one in the bag...well done L.
I like Tchotke from yiddish...it means a small crap trinket...for example the scented rosary my cousin just bought me back from the Vatican
WELL!
Of ALL the unGRATEful buggers!!!
Look I like it BECAUSE it is crap - we have an agreement to buy each other shit tat. THe "snowstorm paperweight" of Mary and BErnadette I got in Lourdes was a classic
Subulous is an elision of the words Sabu and fabulous. A viewing of Alexander Korda 's The Thief of Baghdad will explain the rest.
'A viewing of Alexander Korda 's The Thief of Baghdad will explain the rest.'

I am hoping to go to a sabulous beach on Friday. However, I hope that there will not be too many people there, as I have ochlophobia........

Jiffle to fidget
Sabulous grit or sand
