Lovely word feckle Fran. Haven't met it before. What is it's precise meaning? - sort of faff about without much effect? I like it lots and will adopt it once I'm sure of what I'm saying |

Strangley enough DM, there is no entry for the word feckle in the dictionary It's a word that I have always used in the way you described. Perhaps it is a colloquialism?? My father was Irish and my aunt that I spent a lot of time with as a child was also Irish, so perhaps Carly, that is where I got it from? |

I'll second that, another very discriptive word. |
