[Tetsuo]

I need help with the following words.

-turps (The sentence this word is involved in: "If I'd said to Pa, he'd have asked if I'd been on the turps.)

-way-out coincidence (Here's no sentence, the person's talking and said that something has happened, then a fullstop and followed by: "A way-out coincidence" Hope that may help you.)

-pussy-footer (She's talking about herself and comparing herself with her Pa and said that "I'm a pussy-footer, but I can be pretty direct")

-top of the pops (Sentence "And Elvis singing 'Are you lonesome tonight?' was top of the pops")

-dead appropriate ("I think she thought it was dead appropriate")

-"Sounds like the kind of kid who gets by taking lame dogs under her wing."

-Done and dusted ("Anyway, that's me done and dusted")

-your turn in the box ("Now it's your turn in the box", Does it really mean the same like "It's your turn" or is there any other meaning beyond?)


Thanks for helping me out. I appreciate any help.
