Glenn Robbins has come up with a list of words you just never hear anymore.

In his regular segment on 3AW Breakfast, Glenn said someone referred to his back pain as “lumbago”.

3AW Breakfast callers had some other nominations for phrases from times gone by, including:

  • Lumbago
  • Namelings
  • Cobber
  • Brothel
  • Gallivanting
  • Dropsey
  • No (at least when it comes to children these days…)
  • Pony glass
  • Referring to someone as ‘sport’

Ross surprised Glenn with his ability to guess the meanings of words you never hear anymore…
