qroqqa commented on the word bock-flopping
At least three times, in my fascinated view, sudden, impish winds at the corner of Broad and High blew the derby off his head and sent it bock-flopping across the busy and noisy intersection, my father pursuing it slowly, partly crouched, his arms spread out as if he were shooing a flock of mischievous and unpredictable chicks.
