"Courting" always gets a chuckle off the young lads.
TBH I use all of the above still ,mainly to confuse people younger than thou.

Jerkin is still a favourite of mine...which no one ever uses these days. My Mam always used to ask if I was putting a jerkin on when I went out. But it was a jacket not jumper.

I think to qualify as a jerkin it would have to have a zip

Is ganzee not a jumper? I'm the product of a mixed marriage (Sunderland/Newcastle) so it gets a bit confusing!

Yes Ganzee or maybe more correctly Gansey is a jumper. I believe it came from the jumpers fishermen wore which could be used in the worst case to identify them. It was more of a North Yorkshire thing but originally from Guernsey ( hence Gansey) or so I was told!
