Gincy signifies the highest approval of a person or thing.

I'm cut to the quick, Moos.

I've heard different accounts that the word refers to an old sixpence or possibly the half-crown.

My sorces were the unimpeachable old blokes in the pub.

In which case I apologise unreservedly, and withdraw my objection. Please accept this tosheroon in recompense for any hurt or outrage caused. Especially since you have old sorcerers as your sauce.

    • Haha, I hadn't noticed that 😂
    • Highly recommend Jeremiah from ShinyShine Cleaning who has just done another fantastic job on cleaning our windows, both inside and out. He has been doing our windows for years as he’s reliable,  hard working and a genuinely lovely guy.  Competitive prices too.  Jeremiah - 07947389406  
    • Even with this quote from the article? 'First and foremost, the music across its three days is curated with admirable care.'      
    • We’l be getting our annual building work done soon (roof ridge tiles redone and the chimney stacks repointed). Mrs Bob says she’ll liaise with the builders and that I should get out from the house so I don’t bother them with inanities. So I’ll be off camping to the Fort again for the Summer - June, July, August, whilst they get on with it. I’ll be in my Decathlon Arpenaz 4.1 fresh and black tent. I’ll have a campfire every Friday night like I usually do.
