Bimble

[Swanny]

Never heard of this word before coming here, so thought it must be a motorcycle term, have just looked it up and found this

To go out for a ride on a motorbike, anywhere, having fun.

Think we're all doing that tomorrow hehe

I always think of a bimble specifically being a slower ride, just riding gently around 8-)

Otherwise it's a hoon!

[Wes]

A potter or a blast

We have been bimbling for years so not surprised it's in dictionary.

Please don’t shoot the messenger 'me lovers', but I suspect that ‘Bimble’ maybe local dialect as no such word exists in my 10th edition of the Oxford dictionary.

‘Bimbo’ is the only word listed beginning with the letters bimb. Just as I thought – not all bimbos have blonde hair. ;D

Getting back on topic, how about a ‘poodle’? [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

A dog?

I'd call it a 'pooTle'.... for when I just want to be out enjoying the scenery 8-)

The English language evolves over time and the authors of the various dictionaries recognise that frequent usage of new words or an existing word given a different (secondary) meaning on a regular basis needs to be looked at. For example, ‘poodle’ “a dog of a breed with a curly coat.” Informal, “move or travel in a leisurely manner.”

I guess it doesn’t really matter what language we use on here as long as the members understand what we are talking about. 8-)

With the exception of Geordie Stu, members’ posts on here are in the main comprehensible. ;D

bimble is also a squaddie term for a slow run,

Swanny did find it in the Urban dictionary which I suspect is more slang based.
