A MEM (Marine Engineering Mechanic) in the Royal Navy. Also known as Bilge Rats and Spanner Wankers. Usually recognised by the greasy blue overalls and wearing a pair of ear defenders around their necks.

Another definition of a Stoker, a MEM (Marine Engineering Mechanic) in the Royal Navy.

That Spanner Wanker is a right greasy bugger.

Bilge Rat 

A Stoker or Spanner Wanker in the Royal Navy. Officially, they are Marine Engineering Mechanics or MEMs. Also, it's accurate since they usually spend a lot of time in the underbelly of a ship.

Does that Bilge Rat ever do any real work?
