Yes, I lived with a girl from Nuneaton who introduced me to this fantastic word. Another one to watch is 'hanging', ie ugly or distateful. It was introduced to as a Cornish expression, however a colleague of mine from Oldham assures me that it is widespread in the North.

Wow! someone else from N******n- did you catch a disease? 
question- obviously I don't know where you're from but did you think she sounded Brummie? 'cos I get told that all the time (by s'thrn'rs) and it is beginning to grate.
hanging is also good, will add it to the list.

I'm originally from the Medway Towns, in Kent, but spend a great deal of my childhood in London.
She did sound slightly Brummie to me, but then anybody North of Watford just sounds thick, as far as I'm concerned!
