I was reading a book written in the UK and a character stated that speaking to her sister made her "feel Humpty". I am not sure what she was feeling, as the rest of the dialogue gave no clue. Can anyone help clarify this?

'Getting the hump' and 'humpty' are common Cockney or London expressions for being annoyed or disgruntled. My mother's family were Cockneys.
