After I read your title I was going to post aglet. So what’s the first thing in your list when I opened it? Aglet. Aagh! Foiled, dammit.
Can anybody remember what the dimple between the bottom of your nose and the top of your lip is called?

Anyone familiar with the term Snollygoster?
I first heard this in a conversation from Sir Digby Jones and Henry Bonsu, when they were discussing several self-serving MP’s.
A shrewd person not guided by principles, especially a politician. So folks, take your pick from anywhere within the Westminster Bubble

The sheltered life that I have led.
Not in Yorkshire they aren’t Furry…
