Subject: RE: Folklore: Gob, Lugole, Conk?
GUEST ~~ 'nesh' was one of my wife's Forest of Dean words ~~ that is West, rather than North or South. However, her word had no particular application to climatic conditions, but rather meant over-sensitive or physically fastidious to conditions generally: e.g. "So what if the sheet isn't perfectly tucked in? Just go to sleep and don't be so nesh." {Not, I hasten to add, an actual quotation I recall; just an example that occurred to me.}
