    So, I have come up with an idea; how about you, Lucy Chambers, come into this here thread, post some word which nobody knows the meaning of and explain it to us?

    How about we make it a regular thing? It could be like "drop one, keep one" only better.
    I love language. My favourite word is serendipity but its a bitch to slip that one in to general conversation. Glad you approve Buzz darling, your late night posts rather amuse me too

    Admit it, you just love that film ''Serendipity', with John Cusack?

    I am a fond admirer of Miss Chamber's 'Lucy-isms'. One that tickles me is her idiosyncratic use of the term, "Golly!" There's something innocent and niave about it, yet we know what a strong and independent character she is

    Whenever she has replied to one of my posts with the word 'golly', I know I've said something stupid!

    Problem is she uses that word quite often
