Brivetting

Posted by Mark Smith on November 15, 2001

When I was younger, I would often look in the odds and sods drawer in kitchen. My mother would tell me off and say, "stop brivetting boy!!". Has anyone else heard this saying or seen the word used anywhere else?
I am originally from Tetbury,Glos,U.K.
