When a man gets very bad, we clap him into a boat with a week's provisions and pull him over to grummet. |
Also, a grummet either of rope or iron, fixed to the bottom of a block, for making fast the standing end of the fall. |
This can be achieved by sticking the vapour check to a cantilever slab or by using a grummet made from a fireproof vapour check, for example aluminium foil. |
They climb up and down with their hands and arms, using only the grummet on the feet. |
His plan was to hold tight with his knees while he jerked the grummet as high as it would go, and then to swarm up again and rest. |
Looking back I can see that there was a rich seam amongst the 'e's with effrontery, effete, epicene, effulgence and grummet all featuring in one section. |
