In Britain a while ago, kids would say "Naf off" or "That's completely naf." It basically meant go away or something was really stupid or crappy. |

I think the Brits used to say 'rubbish', but tired of it after centuries and changed it to 'naf'. I have no idea!
Whilst a juvenile in the late 60s my friends and I used to say 'heav' all the time. It was short for heavy or heavenly. I don't think this one caught on, though. Hey - we tried to be trendy!
Seems I cross posted with you, tet.
