ventaWe haven't had one of these in a while... yup, it's a word I use that no one else knows.
If I suggested you get someone to give you a croggy, would you know what I meant? I just used this phrase in the office (for context, to my boss who's currently having transport issues as his car's in dock). He looked at me funny.
He does that a lot anyway, but I think it was the word "croggy" in this instance.
