Slang for refundable glass soda bottle, particularly common in West Central Scotland. Originates from a period when empty glass jam jars could be returned to the place of purchase and used as a form of currency, later the jars could be used in many other places including local cinema houses etc to pay for entry. The jam jars were known as 'Jammies', 'Jamys', refundable soda bottles borrowed the name.
I'll take these rammy's to the shop.
(This word has nothing to do with a local legend in Coatbridge (Kirkshaws) regarding an Indian Fella who was reknown for collecting returnable bottles, the word was in use long before his time)

A Rammy is an inhabitant of Ramsbottom
Characterised by a parochial attitude to life and a belief that Bury is a good place for a night out. Most inhabitants have been no further than Manchester,unless they have spent a week on the Algarve in the belief that they are in Spain. Alcohol dulls them to the pain of life in their beloved Ramsbottom
They say Rammy, because their spelling is not up to the task of spelling Ramsbottom correctly

The boy was so rammy when he opened the refrigerator, that he knocked over everything on the top shelf before he found the milk jug.

In Scotland, a rammy often refers to a party, often drunken. General nonsense and (mild) bad behaviour.
