'spuggit' isn't in One-Look Dictionary.

'Bill Oddie' is (Wikipedia entry) and the info that he is, among other
things, a presenter of TV birdwatching shows suggests that 'spuggits'
are birds, maybe the ones called 'LBJs' in USA (stands for 'Little
Brown Jobs').

<< 20% for wearing a  Fair-Isle sweater >>

I hate to be serious, but what's liberal about wearing a Fair Isle
sweater? Sometimes in USA, you can say 'wearing a sweater' (any kind
of sweater) as an anti-liberal statement, because of Jimmy Carter's
suggestion to save energy (petroleum oil) by turning the thermostat
down, maybe even down low enough that I don't have to fan myself while
wearing nothing but undies (please forgive the terrifying mental
image). But (returning from that digression) I didn't think that
setting the thermostat was a hot political issue in UK.
