Will Fly BS: Odd, rare words (80* d) RE: BS: Odd, rare words 03 Jun 18


We used the word "segs" for hard scabs on the feet - the same word was used for the hobs on hobnailed boots. On Sunday evenings in the summer, my grandad would sit on the back step with a cobbler's last and do his "snobbin'l - fettling his work boots with new segs.
