Ormer Edit Meaning

1.

A particularly odious social climber - attracted to shiny things. Usually male, often balding, develops dangerously high colour when excited. Erroneously believes his blending with wealthy company is seamless. Impossible to shake off (similar to limpit but more slimey). Exclusively found in the larger Channel Islands. Often works in finance.

Darling, you can't possibly propose him for membership at the golf/tennis club, he's a complete ormer.

I might have velvet slippers and my family crest engraved on the silver tomato sauce bottle, but I've never attended the bank Christmas stiffy, I'm no ormer.
