In a post about Douglas Adams I mentioned that he is a much-praised bobby dazzler.
Bingley, a bobby dazzler himself, asks--
This much-praised what? One who dazzles policemen? One who dazzles wearers of bobby socks or bobby pins?
Sorry, Bingley, it was one of those words I saw while looking for another, It is supposed to be an Australian or New Zealand term for somebody who is outstanding or excellent. That is why it could apply to you , too! Aren't you glad you asked?
