International Help Needed [message #76261]

Folks,

I was reading away on my Kindle this evening (and how
did I *ever* get along without that amazing piece of
machinery!) when I stumbled across this sentence, which
my dictionary was no help at all with, but which I liked
*very* much:

"I like fussicking and yorking around in graveyards..."

Since this is a book about Ireland, written by an
English author, I thought I might get some help
translating it from the International folks who
sometimes read this newsgroup. What in the world
does "fussicking and yorking" mean? Coyote has,
as usual, been absolutely no help with his
lewd suggestions, which can't possibly be right!

Cheers,

David
