Denotes a lad or set of lads that basically "sucked up", "arse licked" etc any or all of the most good looking girls in the school. The contributor says it was used because they said they used to serenade the girls with their lutes like Minstrels used to do in Tudor society. They used to say f-ing minstrels or lute players (often spelled as loot). Really they were just jealous of one set of popular lads, but it was funny. He also said his best mate was one of those lads and he still sometimes call him it today if he is chatting up a bird.
"Flick the vick". To stick your two fingers up at someone in an manner meant to be insulting. e.g. "I gave that maths teacher the vick this morning."'V' sign using two fingers has long been a signal of contempt. It originated during the interminable wars between the English and the French. The French were in awe of the English longbow-men. If the French managed to capture any of the bowmen, their practice was to sever the two "string" fingers of the right hand thus rendering them permanently incapable of using a bow.It thus became a symbol of contempt and derision for those English bowmen who still possessed their fingers, to wave them at the opposing side.During World War Two, Winston Churchill used it either way round, to signify "victory", and the shortened somewhat "politer" name of the action has since dropped into common useage since as "the vick", though the original expression "flick the vees" is still used in alongside the newer term.
Relatively large black bird. Could also be a reference to "Jim Crow", a popular 19th-century minstrel song that stereotyped African Americans, which later was used as the name of the Jim Crow laws, which enforced racial segregation in the South.
