Not sure it's exclusive to the east coast, 'baffies' is a good old Scots word.

Not sure if it they are particular to the east coast but words like the following are some of my favourites:

Pagger - fight

Haver - talk to much

Manky / Mawkit

Hoachin - busy

Am sure as an edinbugger living in weegie land I may use one or two words that get me strange looks!

I've got 2 words that when I moved back up to Scotland when I was much younger had me stumped.

Barry- as in that's great, that's barry

Shan- as in that's a shame, don't do that to him that's shan.

Anyone else ever heard of them or did I just imagine it.
