Telf

A regional variant of chav or scally, deriving from a shortened version of 'Telford', an economically depressed new town in Shropshire. It has all the connotations of chav, but also implies a thick Shropshire accent, characterised by a rapid sing-song delivery and words such as 'munna' for 'must not, 'wunna' for 'don't want to' and 'Shoobree' for 'Shrewsbury'. In South Shropshire (e.g. Ludlow and Craven Arms) the term 'twarn' is sometimes used instead.

Telf

A Telf is basically a Chav or Townie from Telford. They squeeze about 8 to 10 of themselves in a Nova and drive round car parks with shit hip-hop music playing very loud. They also hang out in the middle of the ice rink but just stand there shouting abuse instead of actually skating. Incidently, Telford has the highest teenage pregnancy rate in the whole of Britain.

Nova Telfer

Nova Telfer is a skilled and popular poet, most commonly known for her poems; ‘My Dear Addison,’ ‘The Bleep’ and ‘Rachel’s Summer Dream.’

Her poems are commonly found in a wide variety of locations and can be ordered via Amazon.

‘My Dear Addison’ is about Nova’s journey through childhood and all the difficulties she has faced. In the quote “two star-gazed lovers” she brings in her best friend Oliver London.

“The Bleep” shows all of her challenges through adult-hood and how she has been lost, then found. She was lifeless on end, then becoming her true homosapien self.

“Rachel’s Summer Dream” is a metaphor of life, the challenges, the bright sides and the down sides. Rachel has been mentally and physically abused, she has been stolen from then fought until she got what was right.

Overall, Nova Telfer is a strong and an independent woman who shows compassion to many people and I would highly recommend her to many learning poets.
