Gang

[scorpiojo]

Gang, double definition: group, and go.

[emmie]

nope couldn't see that one

[emmie]

what's it got to do with Newcastle....

[1ozzy]

That's the tricky bit...

[emmie]

yes

[satprof]

Emmie, it’s Geordie slang. A version of ‘gan’. If you Google ‘gang geordie slang’ you’ll come across loads of fun geordie. It’s not only London that has it’s own language.

[emmie]

nope, not heard that one.

[bobbinwales]

Yes but I always than it was gan and gang meant going not go.

[1ozzy]

We live and learn,,,,

[emmie]

yes we do

[satprof]

Congratulations, ozzy and scorpiojo. Ozzy was just ahead.

There‘s a suitable 4-letter location with the same letter at both ends, so not hard to locate.
