Do you use the word "chitterwagger"?

[Fambo Number Mive]

The Home Office seem to think that people talk about "having a chitterwagger" (0:28 in this Home Office video where frontline workers ask people to adhere to COVID regulations)

Is this a word you've ever used or heard people using? I've never used it.

It's probably something they say at Eton that means discussing which fillies you fancy.

Google suggests they invented it.

Perhaps it means "shit font, used to get attention".

Presumably it's a public school variant on 'chinwag'[nb]meaning 'chat', in case it hasn't been used in several decades and you've never heard it before[/nb].

It's apparently a Buddhist thing meaning "The Flickering , fickle mind difficult to guard , difficult to control"

I was thinking that, but rather than a variant I thought maybe the person using the word had misheard someone with a speech impedimentan accent say chinwag and genuinely thought they were using the correct word.

I assumed it was a compound of chitter chatter and chinwag.
