Help! Need Slang!

Sorry for the spam, but I have a quick question.

What are some British terms (the sillier the better) for being a jackass and/or crotchety? I need some terms that would really insult Snape if they were applied to him.

Thanks!

I'm sorry I don't have any terms. But I wanted to tell you that I read chapter 7 and loved it!

For some reason, every time I try to post a review on the Petulant Poetess, it won't let me. I think it's because of my browser. (I use safari, and they don't get along that great)

But I wanted you to know I read it and loved it!!!!!!! And Petulant Poetess would have let me, I would have reviewed on there! :-)

Thanks! Those were useful! Though I ended up on the BBC site, and they had a British-American dictionary. Limited, but I got a good word from there!
