Refers to da playful vigorous arms-bobbing dat you smilingly give a small child (usually a boy, but a fairly-sturdy girl may enjoy this, as well) every so often during a visit to his folks' residence, whenever he comes around wanting a little attention. Usually a few seconds of grabbing his hands and shaking his arms up and down while making "URuh-URuh-URuh-URuh-URuh-URuh-URuh-URuh!" sounds will happily satisfy him for at least a short time; usually he will patter off and play again, and then you can continue conversion with his parents for a while until he scampers back to you for another "helping".
I always love giving little kids generous doses of periodic pump-handle pacification as a way to keep them satisfied and entertained while I'm engaged in other activities... it's totally fulfilling and attention-giving for them, it's a great way of bonding with them, and it's 100% calorie-free --- i.e, I never get in trouble with their parents for giving them candy or for "feeding them rich snacks before supper" which would make them less hungry for whatever blander-tasking health-food that their parents want them to chow down on instead.
An absolutely foolproof way to keep minors from viewing content deemed "too mature" for them to watch.

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
