I'd probably smoke them as well when I get stressed out!! Going off on a slight tangent here, but do you like decorating Baz? Only asking, as if you do, I could smoke in the house then instead of out side!! lol Kim

Well Baz If I were to run out of cigi's I would set light to any of the suggestions that have been mad so far! lol So I'll let you know someday what a Flag, faggott or whatever tastes like when lit!!! Kim ( a compulsive smoker!) :-))

Another meaning Fag Chiefly in the U.K. and Australia, as far as I know. Probably short for "faggot" as in "a bundle of sticks used for fuel."

OK Baz Collins Millennium ed. dictionary doesn't give derivation, but in addition to being a cigarette, it can mean effeminate, or a boy who serves other boys at public school, or something exhausting - ie its a fag wading through gRO indexes. nell
