GiffGaffers 

Members of the “crowd sourced” mobile network provider who partly operate the network.
Customer support is largely provided by GiffGaffers, giving “Giff Gaff” customers. SIM cards are distributed partly through the good efforts of these “giving” customers. The network has a contract with O2 to provide its mobile phone network services.
The concepts of a “Mutual Giving” Mobile Network Service provider, enabled by the internet, and GiffGaffers, are similar to the concepts first documented in the Cluetrain Manifesto (Google it!) and more recently described by Doc Searles in his book “The Intention Economy: When Customers Take Charge

(In response to the earlier definition, of course a phone with a Giff Gaff Sim should be configured for the Giff Gaff Sim)
(This is not to say there are no problems with GiffGaff, an example is the recent realisation that some excessively greedy GiffGaffers who “over-use” the low cost unlimited Data Sims are increasing the costs for normal GiffGaffers)
I am very happy with the support of GiffGaff’s GiffGaffers, so much so I have decided to become one!

girl grip 

The ability girls and women have developed to hold several items at once in one hand. The skill has been developed due to the lack of pockets in women's clothing.
I thought she'd need multiple trips to carry her phone, keys, wallet, and Starbucks to her car since she needed the other hand to open the door, but she used her impressive girl grip to carry everything in one hand.
