Bratoft (v.)- the act of removing one's brassiere without taking off the overlying layers of clothing. Acheived by unhooking the fastener and sliding the shoulder straps down one's sleeves. The bra should be removed from the last sleeve with a flourish, much in the way a magician produces a bouquet of flowers. A skill extremely useful when getting changed on the beach.

Surely a Bratoft is one partner in a chav couple aged 21 with 5 kids and another on the way?

I always thought bratoft n. meant the bulge of fat that appears over the sides of the bra at the back, where the bra is too tight and cuts into the fat on the back.

Actually now I come to think of it, a "bratoft" is a little child who is a nuisance most of the time.
