Anyone up for a game?
Over the last few decades, until the sad demise of Humph, I'm Sorry, I Haven't a Clue has been a delightfully quintessentially Britsh contribution to broadcasting, and one of the games played was Uxbridge English Dictionary, the rules of which, for those unfortunate enough to have missed the radio shows, are in the link.

Ill start, with the slightly sick:-
'Easel' - a decapitated small animal.

Oh goodness, David, you have started something here that could lose me my job because I will not be able to stop thinking about it during the supposed working day. Loved Humph's show but I did not listen to it often enough to realise what the Uxbridge English Dictionary game is. Your Wikipedia link had me splitting my sides with laughter.
OK here's my first attempt:
Lassoo (or Lasso) - premature completion of a rather exciting exercise

Nice one, Amanda.
Fiona adored the Society Ball although I never heard it myself. She often relays extracts that soddenly occur to her. I wonder if the recordings are available for sale?
My next contribution is sort of inevitable given your definition:
Defibrillation = digging a deep hole even deeper
Never knowingly underfed
