What, in the name of the Great Sasquatch, is a "Scally"?

Oh, and my oddity: whenever I open a deck of smokes, I take one cigarette out, and replace it "filter down." This is "my last smoke". And it is the last one that I smoke out of the deck.:confused:

The Generic term for Scousers, in particular the Youth of said fair City whose tendency to dress in "Trackies" of varying hues (but with a predominance of Black amongst males, females preferring the more lighter tones of White & Pink, brand being optional but preferably a designer label :D) & as an outward display of undying loyalty to their home City a football Top of either the Blue or Red, persuasion (Everton /Liverpool).

Other "Club Tops" are occasionally worn by would be "Scallies" but only by those deemed "mental" or with a short life expectancy (Man.U is practically banned & considered extremely bad taste ;) on a par with peeing through someones letter box !) hereby endeth the short treatise on the City of Liverpool & its' Denizens.

As to the Smoke thing, I remember Lads in the Military who used to do that this was their last "Gasper" & as a point of smokerist etiquette was not to be taken when Cigs were handed round ! :)

Good explanation.

Scallies call scallies who don't have a scouse accent, people from St. Helens for instance, 'wooly backs'. Though I've never particulary thought of St. Helens as being some sort of idyllic pastoral pleasureland myself.

Oddly, in Scotland scallies are called 'wee neds', and around the Thames estuary 'townies'.

These names predate the term chav by a generation or so. Which oddly could make them chavs' grandads.

:D
