A trimmer is a person who goes to a certain area of the Yorkshire Moors in England, where the craggy rock floor is coated in a thick and velvety moss covering.

The rocks are weathered and worn with age, and have formed deep crevices that are used as a substitute for the female genitalia. Lone walkers can be found face down in the rocks, appearing to sniff the moss, with their gentlemen inserted deep into a soft mossy crevice.

This act of copulation helps to trim the moss and keep it under control. Hence the phrase - “Trimmers”.
Paul is such a trimmer! He was face down on the moors this morning with his pal from the Co-op, Terry Tickler. He’s nothing but a moss sniffing shuffler!
