Personal Chart

A chart (i.e. a list), generally music-based, determined by ones personal taste.

Commonly personal singles charts are a list of what one person's current favourite music is, and is compiled by themselves. The chart will typically change every week, like national charts, the positions moving such that some older songs make way for newer songs. Typically a single may climb the chart to its peak position then move downward until it drops out but patterns may differ.

Oxymoron by 11:59 is currently number one on the NM personal chart.

Rathbone

Defacing a parking sign in a way such that the parking fee will be unenforceable thus effectively creating free parking.

Particularly effective in Westminster, London on Motorcycle parking bays in a manner such that the bay is still restricted to motorcycles but the pay instruction details are withheld.

(Name originates from such a defaced sign in Rathbone Place, London, W1).

(sp) Rathboning (present tense), ‘He’s rathboning it’. Rathboned (past tense), the sign was rathboned.

Manchasm

A chasm of men, apparently. Or a tale about Mark Foley and things he said, all of which were right (audience, please!), that all he wanted was a detonator and how Colin is a very pretty pussy cat.

Manchasm by Future of the Left, although the word doesn't appear anywhere in the lyrics.

welly

verb: past participle: wellied...

In football (soccer), just whacking the ball as hard as you can and hoping for the best.

I still had the ball but I didn't know whether to shoot or cross, and basically I just wellied it towards goal. It went in, and I ran behind

chances because we rarely keep the ball after our back four just welly it forward all the time instead of passing it into the midfield
