Ey oop = Hello
Fizog = Face
Lughole = Ear
Jiggered = Exhausted
Manky = Rough
Our lass = Wife
Gipping = Vomiting

Spiffing, what?
Actually I've never heard anyone round here use "fizog" for face either - isn't it a midlands thing?

i thought a jigger was a door? hence, sliped int back jigger and chored me socks...
WTF is fizog, thats either made up or seriously old. and ginnel is said with a g, not a j...
i believe , Fizzog is welsh , since my welsh girlriend (whoos now my ex) had plenty sprayed over her fizzog
It's still used round here. It's based on the word physiognomy which is a posh word for face, so would probably be unknown to people of a lower intellect than what we are.
Fizog is used in Huddersfield by a few, but what's a lughole? Is that the same as a lug'oil?
