British slang, very similar in meaning to razzle. It means going out, getting pissed, but the major objective is lots and lots of shagging preferably with a number of different partners. As with razzle this slang term has its origins with the Royal Navy but became more widely known due to the Kate Bush song “Ran Tan Waltz”.

It is said of the situation where a person has the bad luck to make contact with his testicles against an undefined surface or object, intentioned or not.
Given the nature of the word, it is more appropriate to design cases where the interaction is made with a moving object, for example, a ball.
Although it is extremely painful for the victim, it tends to be considerably funny to people who witness it.
