* Suck the back of them- You are talking nonsense and I am not going to do what you suggest
* Craic (pron “crack”)– various meanings including the score, the story, the information, news, fun
* Half gate – half of the agreed transaction fee
* Hood – a delinquent youth
* Wee buns – that’s very easy
* Blootered – drunk
* You’d eat the balls off a skunk - you have a voracious appetite
* Header – someone with a volatile and possibly psychopathic personality
This is what confused me when I arrived here:
car boot sale
temporary skip hire
no fly tipping
chance will be a fine thing
any of the cockney rhyming stuff, especially when you got half of it (e.g. nice bristols, shame about the boat).
