Thanks, tattiefritter. I'm finding that lots of British slang terms can be used in different contexts.

I'm guessing that "clobber" = "gear"?

Hmm not sure about in the UK but in Australia "clobber" means clothes (he had all his clobber on to go for a ride). It can also mean to hit something hard (he would clobber the ball over the fence).

That would make sense. There was a tag line on this month's cover referring to "Cool clobber- Jerseys and gloves for winter".

The second meaning is one I'm familiar with. When I was a kid, I used to get yelled at for clobbering my little brother

In my neck of the woods clobbered meant losing very badly. - - - - - are going to clobber the Vikings


You know the more you say the word clobber the weirder it sounds

I think Lucy, the character for The Peanuts comic used the word clobber a lot! Sorry, a little off subject...
