“Speaking of you not being a mileage eater... Doing anything for the Solstice in June? I've a plan for a bimble up the coast and across to Holy Island. The tides work well for being on the island at about 2am... You could get the train up & meet there for the return ride?”

Bim is a dated, low-key slang term for a woman, sitting somewhere in the lineage of words like 'bimbo' without necessarily carrying the same level of loaded baggage. It's terse and casual rather than outright malicious, but it's also not exactly flattering — it tends to reduce the subject to a generic category rather than an individual. You'd mainly encounter it in older slang dictionaries, hardboiled fiction, or period dialogue trying to evoke a certain era's street argot.
