My 2006 "Uxbridge English Dictionary" definitions

In March 2006 I submitted a bunch of UED definitions, as heard on the wonderful "I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue", to the BBC Radio 4 online message boards.

For no other reason than sheer vanity and self-promotion, I reproduce them here to show you just how bloody clever I am.
