Bus transport: A (usually highly expereinced) driver who stands by at the depot to cover runs when the allocated driver or bus is sick, or an extra bus is needed for other reasons.
When not being scattered (the verb of covering a run) the scatter may complete other task such as orgainising, refueling or cleaning buses in the yard, answering the telephone or basic but important paperwork.

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.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
