Whim
Not a person, but a phenomenon. A whim is a public schoolboy with bleached hair. He doesn't follow orthodox slang trails. He chooses to forge his own. Such as spafe, westlife, and uber vince-head.
The Whim drives a 1.1 litre peugeot 106, and has a unique dance technique known only as "The Whim-Bop". Nicknames of The Whim, include the ridiculous: Peter, Whimothy and Whim-Bob.
The Whim is currently the only human to be signposted, and even has a supermarket named after him (in Newquay).

Whim Session
A whim session is when you and your friends decide to venture out of town for a drink somewhere new. May cause controversy with some drinking buddies as they’re set in their ways and prefer the same old local drinking establishments.
Example:
Trev - “Going for a few drinks at HB at 7. Best get yourself down!”
Alan “Not tonight thanks. Some of us are going for a bit of a whim session and checking out that new bar in Millaston. You’re welcome to join us, Ken’s driving.”
Trev- “You must be joking if you think I’ll be seen in a dump like that! Way too far, just come down to HB.”
