    And how would you use that word in a sentence? Today I was as happy as a gladstone?!

    Caroline, as I've just found out, a "gladstone" is actually a kind of bag. The Oxford Dictionary says: "a bag like a briefcase having two equal compartments joined by a hinge". So I guess you would rather say "Have you seen my new Hermes gladstone?" :)
