Iron hoof - poof
My dad called them shirt-lifters.All this fuss about Towie and the word "ream". When I was a Mod in the mid-60s we used the word regularly for anything we considered good. The obverse was "dross". The Mod scene more or less originated in the Essex area of Sarfend and Womfed so I suspect that's why we Norwich Mods used "their" words. But, sorry Joey, it's not a word you are responsible for, it's a lot older than that.

If something was above average it was "qual", as in quality.
If someone had earned your respect, they were "safe".
If someone was below average intelligence they were a "rem".
Lush is still common place in South Wales!
Come across the water and you can get "Gert Lush" in Bristol. If someone had earned your respect, they were "safe".
