I suppose this is the poll which I should have asked instead of this.
(The "Northern/Southern/Other" classification is for identifying how you identify yourself, rather than what the word means in different regions.)
[Poll #558245]
* or at least, what did it mean before this afternoon's digression

Fettle either means 'mood' or 'fight and win'
In the 'fight and win' meaning its interchangeable with 'fell'
Eg
'I'll fettle you' and 'I'll fell you' are identical in meaning
in the good sence it usually means a bad mood grumpy or angry.
eg
'He/Shes in a right fettle' - he/shes in a bad mood
'Oh they're in a fine fettle the day
It can, however be used in a positive sence
Eg 'You're in a good fettle' but thats usually only used if the person is in an unsually good mood
