Question for Old Git

greenspun.com : LUSENET : TimeBomb 2000 (Y2000) : One Thread

Would you please tell me what the word "git" means to Brits? Last night on Frasier Daphne asked "what kind of git carries" a wedding bouquet she disliked. Surely the word has some meaning for Brits that we Americans are unaware of.
