It's an insult: used pretty interchangeably with "wanker", except a bit less offensive. (The etymology of "tosser" is probably at least in part from "toss-pot", which dates back to Shakespeare... who had all the best insults. :) ) - - Andrew - -- "Every aircraft, every camera, Is a wish that wasn't granted." - - Mogwai, "Take Me Somewhere Nice" ('Rock Action') adw27@cam.ac.uk (academic) | http://www.lexical.org.uk ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 01 Oct 2002 15:31:48 +0200 From: Bart van Damme Subject: Re: [idealcopy] RE: HELP!

As in that old fat woman who used to play piano at Blackpool Tower Ballroom on a regular basis - with a very large inane grin! Well that's what I thought when I heard some DJ berating "Mrs Miller's" apparently awful version of the Toys 'Lover Concerto' on the radio recently, but it would appear that it's a different one Ian.
