I was at a jobs fair this week and, talking to one of the delegates, I asked if he had any 'bumf' - mostly leaflets containing information that is sometimes useful (such as product information), but more often than not is useless or tedious (such as the flyers that suddenly appear through your letterbox). I don't know if 'bumf' is used predominantly in the North of England, as the guy with whom I was speaking was a Southerner and had to ask what it meant.
