Slutty = Dirty (no comments please):D

Been doing a bit of research about tripe and discovered that "Black tripe" which is the abomasum, one of the cows "stomachs" (get's easily dislocated in dairy cows after calving and will lead to death without an operation) was known locally as "Slut" from the Lanky word slutty meaning dirty...

This one came to me because it's so hot here - I remember people saying they were "sweating bobbers" -wonder what it actually means.

Though of course everyone knows that horses sweat, men perspire and we ladies, well we just glow;)
