"Dashy is a proper Kennick"
"Ashley got caught lying again...what an absolute Ken!"
"My boss is making me work the weekend again, the spiteful Ken!"
"Which Ken used all the Ketchup again?"
Used frequently throughout South
West London, Middlesex and Kent. Especially in the areas of Sunbury, Stanwell, Ashford (Middlesex), Shepperton, Chatham and across Medway.
Some say the word originates from gypsies hunting the Kennick bird on Stanwell Moor way back in
Victorian times. The Kennick bird was hunted to extinction leading to the bird being deemed useless. Hence why Kennick is a
derogatory term although it can be used as a term of endearment.
