IN some parts of South-East England, the word 'Broster' is used to describe something that has gone seriously wrong. The term was derived from one AS chemistry student who relentlessly dropped glassware by accident throughout the year. As the term became more widely used, to 'Broster something up' or 'brostered' became used for anything that has gone badly wrong, so it was no longer only applicable to broken glassware.
