Re: Soft Mick.
After searching slang dictionaries on the web, l've finally accepted that Mick is a derogatory term for an Irish man, and soft just means simple. But why is it so localised, and why does it means extravagance? l'm still hoping he was an Accy dandy.
Other good localish words found in the slang dictionary were-
crammed [grumpy,]
mard [feeling miserable.]
