LOL! I wouldn't want to spanghew anybody or anything! Have no idea what it means, though.

I thought slek meant a dummy or an idiot, but that can't be right. Not in the context of that sentence...

spanghew [spang-hyoo] - to cause a frog or toad to fly into the air. (Usually violently, from the end of a stick, although it seems as though it wouldn't ever feel gentle to the poor toad or frog!)

sleck [slek] - soft mud, ooze.

"I was glad there was a strong breastsummer as I walked into the ancient castle."

Hmmnnn. summer breeze?
The ancient castle probably was all damp and mouldy.

That one with "tattletale". That was cool. I really had no idea, but thought about the whole sentence and imagined what might have played out for the namecalling to take place.

spanghew and sleck are doozies aren't they? I must try to remember spanghew. lol

These are hard, but keep 'em coming.

breastsummer [bress-uh-mer] - a large beam, extending horizontally over an opening, that supports the whole weight of the wall above it.

(If you thought it was pronounced 'breast-summer' then you might think it has something to do with going through puberty over summer!)

"When I heard youfing coming from inside my daughter's jacket, I discovered she was trying to smuggle a wavenger into our house."

wow, must be animal related. something that would be small enough to fit inside jacket. The wavenger part sounds somewhat familiar to me for some reason, but no idea what it could be. I'll say a cat, but it could be a dog, 'cause youfing might rhyme with woofing depending on your accent LOL

Oh, you are good, Lara ....

youf [yowf] - to bark in a muffled way.

wavenger [way-vin-djer] - an obsolete word meaning 'a stray animal'.

"I have a peruke and I like to wear it in a cadogan and sometimes I like to thrum it."

Oh cool! I thought it was going to be a cat or a mouse though. Very neat.

I love doing these. Others will tire of me before I do.

I wonder if a cadogan is a cardigan? hmnnn nah
Says "in" a cardogan, so couldn't be cardigan or it would probably say "on".
I wonder if thrum is like strum or fiddle with.
a peruke? No idea.

Maybe peruke is a hatpin or badge or brooch or something and it's worn in a hat and they like to twiddle or fiddle with it.
The only other thing I can think of is that thrum might me throw, so that would change everything else.
