numptorium
n.— «A prize of a year’s supply of the full proceedings of the Scottish Parliament is on offer for the best term for the Holyrood Reichstag. So far, I can reveal two short-listed terms “Auld Drearie” and “The Numptorium”. My old chum, Sir Taggart Kilbirnie of that Ilk, suggests that the latter would make the present regime a “Numptocracy”!» —“Hickey; Hickey” Scotsman (Scotland) Oct. 18, 2004.
