Interest has been expressed in finding out what it means (if anything).

Those interested could ask Helefra, Uncle Fester or Spot as they are of the Welsh persuasion. Having put them in the firing line, I must deny any and all knowledge of whether they are Gogs or Magogs.

I can, however, say with absolute certainty that none of them are Gwr y Gogledd.

Don't know, but your rope-skipping sheep is adorable. :-4

Please don't say it means 'Bog off and look it up yourself'


It don't.

Do I?

Well, for a price............

It's a peculiarly Welsh variation on Slàinte mhath.

I shall say no more at this time.

It means....causin rammies an stooshies

Ive been told it means **** off England, up yours

Is that true?

*snigger*

I still love the little sheep.

Wanders off shaking head

Chookie is actually a reference to the hairy critter in Star Wars.

The rather clever toast of "Bottoms Up" gives the clue, I'm afraid.

No. Im pretty sure its the hairy critter.

What's (pog mo thon?) The closest i can come to it is (pogue mahone) translated in gaelic = kiss my ass

Got it in one, then.

I thought it was something to do with killing english people:-3 am i wrong?:-2

As Spot said (gives the clue)

Heck, I thought it was Vietnamese.

That's the proper spelling Bcup (and no, I'm not having a go at your spelling).

You're not a teuchter, so you aren't required to know.

Dont worry about spelling, thats not one of my buttons



Wikapedia classes a teucher as a scot in the north or highlands, im in the north.



Are you saying pog mo thon does not mean 'kiss my ass'?:-6



Quote - My grandfather, Duncan MacLeod, spent a few summers in Upper Southwest Mabou with his Gaelic-speaking relatives when he was a boy, but he thought the language was silly and the only things he picked up were ‘ciamar a tha thu’ (how are you) and ‘pog mo thon’ (kiss my arse).

Most definitely, I have a dictionary which defines ASS in this manner:- ass1 noun (asses) 1 any of various species of hoofed mammal resembling, but smaller than, a horse, with longer ears, a grey or brownish coat, a short erect mane, and a characteristic bray. 2 colloq a stupid person.

Personally, I do not possess anything which falls into either category (although I was married for a while).

Thus, Pòg mo thòn does not mean kiss my ass. It means Kiss my arse.

‘ciamar a tha thu’ (how are you) - truth

and ‘pog mo thon’ (kiss my arse). - truth

so picky :p

so does your other tag mean **** England, up yours or **** England, bottoms up as Spot suggested?
