A Royal Navy rating's hat. A term exclusively used by the pupils of the Royal Hospital School, Holbrook, Suffolk, where they wear naval uniform for ceremonial purposes.

The origin of the word is unknown and seems to have come into use in the 1960s. It may be a corruption of 'gibby' an earlier word used by the school for the same attire.
He wore his gidge with pride.

We were tied at one goal a piece until about the fiftieth minute, and then we gigged on 'em, and won, like, five-one.

That's the tits.

gadgetbahn 

A transportation concept or implementation that is touted as futuristic or innovative, but in execution turns out to be more expensive and less feasible than traditional means, outweighing their usefulness. Examples include but are not limited to Monorails (most often cited example) Personal Rapid Transit, Maglev, etc, versus traditional means generally referring to rail, subway, and road infrastructure

The term generally carries a negative connotation, in that the solutions may be seen as an expensive 'white elephant' in the truest sense: more difficult and more expensive to maintain and add to without any perceived benefit other than looking cool
