    That's a new one on me!. Here's some others which may be new to thee.  Prattling gabblers, lickorous gluttons,  freckled bitton mangy rascals, drunken roysters  sly knaves, slabberdegullion druggels, lubberly louts, cozening foxes. If you'd like more I got a million of 'em! Years ago on Answerbag my friend Kevin sent me a printout by Michael Quinion who got the info from Sir Thomas Urquhart's translation of Rabelais' "Gargantua and Pantagruel". It is based on vocabulary used in Scotland in his time. My favorite is the slabberdegullion druggels. Washington, D.C. is filled with them methinks. Thank you for your reply Addb! :)
