Another rude A3 name

The only entry for "St Frusquin" given in the Harraps English-French Slang Dictionary (1980), which has plenty of slang expressions in both languages for the male member, is as part of "tout le St-Frusquin" : the whole bag of tricks, all one's worldly goods. I suspect this is pretty dated now, but not particularly rude.

Anyway, here's another.

I recently came across of a list of jocular names in French for the male member. Lurking between "rat-sans-pattes" and "thermometre-å-moustaches" was "saint-frusquin". As Gresley fans will know, A3 No. 60075 was named "St Frusquin". The Hornby A3 is available with this name.

I suspect that this is a pretty obscure term even in France, as a quick Google search didn't seem to turn up any reference to it. Neither did it seem to find any actual saint named Frusquin.

You lead a very sheltered life mate:

Yoda (or somebody else of the same name) wrote thusly in message :

Did "gay" have *that* meaning when the loco was named?

In those more 'wholesome' days, 'gay' meant happy or jovial.
