I used this word GONGOOZLER as the title of one of my stories (published in the nineties). Then it was a very obscure word (a word given to me by Odalisque who
is now a member of this Shocklines forum), a word that only those with British esoteric canal-speak knew about. It refers to loafers who hang about canal
locks watching others strain and struggle with the canal-locks.
But now, I am amazed to say, there is a wikipedia entry! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gongoozler (after googling it)
I think to gongoozle is a better word than to google! It seems more appropriate. :-)
You heard it here first. I expect you all now to use this new word for the process of googling!!
