    I thought it was the Scottish slang for a feminine man. I did spell it phonetically ... Jessie is the actual spelling. I enjoy corresponding on the net to post with people from all over the world because I enjoy the different expressions. In Louisiana where my wife is from they have some great ones. I heard a tape of a Scott'sman demonstrating the sounds, and he was referring to someone as a Jessie.

      Ah okay yes a 'jessie'.. Basically 'poosay'. Apologies for not getting that. Tbh honest that's almost an obsolete word now here. You see it used in old movies and that. I would say jessie was a much kinder term from a FAR more polite age compared with what we would call such a jelly spined person now. In truth, our language really isn't great a lot of the time but we definitely try to modify it for visitors. I think that shows a bit of class.
      The lad in the clip looks pretty handy though. We await his pro debut.

        Thanks for the heads up on this lad. Looks crisp and sharp. Fully on my radar now. Look forward to his pro debut.
        Indeed. Check out that channel, he demos a lot of the tutorials so to speak. Looks like they work a fair bit of the Soviet style too.

          The channel is brilliant. I actually left a comment noting how Kaiden was using the Loma side-step. Exciting times for Scottish boxing. Don't want to miss his debut.
