Above A Rubbish Bin

"Din" is a contraction of the Romany word "dinlo" which means a fool. Commonly used by people from Pompey (Portsmouth), so the City Council has taken to using it to try and get the dinlos to dispose f their rubbish properly.
That's brilliant 😊 love Pompey words: had to explain sqinney to my mum when my kids were squinneying!!

I took a shot of similar sign on top of the hill last week. I had to learn a few new words when I moved to Portsmouth 44 years ago Dinlo being one of them.

@wakelys I lived in Bristol for many years and had to learn a whole new language having been brought up in the City of Winchester where we spoke proper English (or so I thought at the time).
