David - object to your word. "Bird" is derisory. Sea young and attractive loady is the accepted pc word.

JC - actullay don't remember Treen. Knew that Wend would know the word had she ever canoodled with Tim Wonnacott though. "Eagle" used to be my comic every week as well, but you have a better memory than me.

Wend I take that personally :-P

Treen, wooden items collectively, e.g., utensils, ornaments, working tools, or implements, 1300.


Ps.
Treen can also refer to an inhabitant of Northern Venus who`s supreme leader is the Mekon.
(from "Dan Dare Pilot of the Future". 1950s)
:-D :-D :-D

I really like the word 'Canoodle' - I think that's something I used to do in the back row of the cinema when I was an innocent teenager.

'Treen' ? That's a word I'm not familiar with.
