What with so many people driving around the UK in a Mitsubishi Pajero, I feel it is only fitting if it's true!

Some people have said Pajero is bird - that's Pajaro, not Pajero but thanks.

Yes, you're right. I find it pretty funny myself.

I can see the league saying "okay, no more of this" (the Pronger-type deals), but the league already approved the deals in question. If the league had a problem with these deals they should have made this point at the time. As to the cap...if you believe what's in the papers, the cap number for next year is not going to be the mega downward hit that everyone had forecasted which would really hurt the Hawks. So they'll sign their stars and have to jettison a lot of their depth players and sign cheaper ones. I suppose this is another thing to stick on the next CBA negotiations...the NHLPA surely has their ducks in a row and is working on negotiating strategies...well, maybe not so much then. For their sake I hope they can get an executive director that won't read private emails and will actually work for the benefit of the rank and file (but that's another mountain to scale).

Jon H - I live in Spain already for 10 years and I have never heard anything about the word pajero. So, Becky I have no idea of what you are talking about, and I am not ashamed to admit it. Maybe I should even be happy.
I found out in http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=wanker
A british term for "one who masturbates". Commonly used as an insult
I agree with Noura and Thornsey because if it is a typical british slang it doesn´t have to mean anything in Spanish.
According to my dictionary:
pajero is someone whose trade is to sell straw.
straw = paja

You're right. If you are in Spain and call someone "pajero," you are indeed calling him a w***ker. In other Spanish-speaking countries it might not mean exactly the same, or even anything similar at all.

I think the word you mean is "pajillero".
Pajero is the car and it is really similar, but it's not exactly w**ker.

My wife, who is from Costa Rica says it means bird. But she says it can mean w@nker in Spain. What i'm trying to say is that it does not mean W@nker in all Spanish speaking countries, in the same way that F@g has different meanings in the US and the UK. Wow I made hard work of that one.

I can confirm that you are pretty sure that "Pajero" is Spanish for "w***ker".

Let me guess the question is asked by one of the anti 4x4 brigade, however I digress.

Pajero translates to "bird"...but any slang uses, I am unaware of.
