FerretJamie 0 Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 (edited) Sorry to sound stupid but I have seen a couple of adverts now that say "dog ferret for sale". Can anyone tell me what this means? Also, what does lamp mean? Cheers, Jamie Edited August 31, 2008 by FerretJamie Quote Link to post

FerretJamie 0 Posted August 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 Thanks for the replies. Why does it say in the Ferrets For Sale section "3ft dog ferret"? Cheers, Jamie Quote Link to post

Malt 379 Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 Lamping means hitting someone round here..... And for the dyslexic amongst us: Lampkin is a dynasty of unfeasably talented trials riders from Yorkshire.... I can remember Dougie Lampkin on Kickstart years ago! Same expression for clouting somebody here too! Quote Link to post
