Get friggled, Mr fsn!

Friggled? That's a new one on me.  Surely FK wouldn't resort to making up his own word so I looked it up:

Not in the Oxford. 

Not in the Cambridge. 

Perhaps, I pondered, it's a word from the colonies.

Merriam-Webster said they knew the word, but would only tell me if I signed up. (Fat chance.)

Wiktionary defines friggle as
     1) (rare) to wriggle
     2) (rare) to fiddle, fumble

Hmmm. Is FK suggesting I get fiddled? Well, it's been a while ...

Urban Dictionary, the last resort suggests friggled means:     
     1) to be out of sorts

This I take to be the meaning of friggled as used by FK. Since that post has been made, I have in fact had a bit of a sniffle and a ticklish throat. This has put me out of sorts. The timing cannot be coincidental, FK has put some sort of spell, hex or geas on me.

I accuse FK of witchcraft and demand that he cannot access the forum unless he is wearing a black pointy hat.

I quite understand that this is a small company and how many hats people have been forced to wear. Perhaps it would be better not to make promises that can't be kept? Why not say that new ranges/models will be coming out as soon as possible without giving a date?

Actually, now I think of it, no matter what you do its not going to please eveyone.

Indeed. If Pendraken refuse to say when a range will be released, then they will be bombarded with "are they there yet?"

Perhaps Pendraken could do the same sort of thing as HaT. HaT include on the website future releases, with a scale of 1-10 indicating how far advanced the project is.

A schoolfriend and I devised the term as an insult to our maths teacher in 1976. We made his life a living hell.

Excuse me, g_Guy! I do not conjugate with verbs that I do not know!

It's like we haven't been properly introduced.

[FierceKitty]

Quite right. On a first use, only a little mild inflection.

[d_Guy]

Allow me.
fsn this is friggle, friggle, fsn.

Is that in case you suffer an adverb reaction ?

It is a tricky one and I'm not sure there's an optimum solution.  I've tried to overestimate on all the latest sculpts that have arrived, so that we don't end up with those really long delays anymore.
