- OED mentions the mass noun usage ("a woman, or women collectively, as a source of sexual gratification") and illustrates it by metonymic uses like "He desir'd some Coney" (a. 1696). There is also a countable version: "The Conyes vse to feed most i'th night Sir, yet I cannot see my young mistris" (1631). As with many of the early uses, this may be a pun on coney.

"Countryside". Nothing obvious, although the many other meanings makes searching hard. Partridge implies it's Merseyside dialect; the EDD has nothing for this sense, only senses related to a game of marbles. (The sense "cunning" might also be hard to attest in English as opposed to Jamaican Creole.) - -sche (discuss) 18:18, 31 August 2022 (UTC)

- It never fails: corrections or comments on errors of others always seem to have some kind of picky little error themselves. There must be something subconscious at work. As for the user in question. I noticed a tendency to use quotes to add unnecessary encyclopedic content, but I didn't have time to look through their other content. It doesn't surprise me though.
