COLLECTIVE NOUNS E-mail
 

Inspired by Carlito’s query in another thread suggesting the collective noun of a ‘pride of homosexuals’ (derived from the phrase ‘gay pride’), I thought it may be a good time to start a new thread on this tired and lacklustre website. I suggest that collective nouns and their derivatives are included, e.g.

Image
Charlie Boy, riding an old nag (a Camilla of nags).
A S**tload of troubles (collective noun).

A Brace of Prostitutes (derivative of ‘brace yourself against the railings’).

An Oi of Chavs

A Stagger of Cider Drinkers

I'm sure you can think of many more, so let's have them (extra points for being Bridport related)

A rash of troublesome retirees (aimed at the irritating blemish near the palace cinema). A wedge of restropective planning permissions. A cull of hoodies. (Wishful thinking give the growth of Waaa's see above). A charm of con men. An infestation of road signs. A greed of property developers. A haze of dope smokers. A grin of Bridport Radio members
