Since moving to Au my favorite words are

Bogan, Feral & tramp stamp

Trollop is one I haven't heard in a while....

 

[erkpod]

That's super cute

Besides that, I thought that if I took the photo & put it on her Facebook page, I can see if she likes it first. Some people don't like candles. If she does, I can buy it for her. If not, no harm done.

What about 'slapper'?

Mrsbuzzard & I went to P J O'Briens East End, Radelaide on Friday night. T Bone, Chips + Salad for $10. Sauce $2 extra. Pint of 'Kenny $5.00.
The steak certainly wasn't the best but then what do you expect for a tenner? Overall we enjoyed ourselves.
Better steaks up the road at The Stag, around the $25 mark I think.

There were two pubs in Brisbane that I used to attend on some Sundays. The Jubilee and the Fox. Both had steak specials - Normally $2 when you purchased a drink. Sauce tended to be $2 and chips were either $1 or $2.

Another place - The Elephant and Wheelbarrow also had Sunday food specials. Most importantly they had pints for $5.

Not sure if any of those specials still exist!

You sure that was after we adopted decimal currency, Mal?

That's more a British term... originating from the Essex region

 

[QF WP]

and a famous saying on Eastenders

 

[SeatBackForward]

Absolutely. Don't think she would last very long though.

Bearing in mind you've often advocated that societies dress standards are slipping, is this not a classic case where (wear!) the individual has met your requirements? you should be pleased by them.

Lol. Mid 2012.

Being a part time Eastender we have words like suffink and anyfink and fanksalot.
Quite different language to other parts of London but it may be a little watered down by a surge in European workers behind counters.

Also 'aks' instead of 'ask'

 

[Buzzard]

Is it wrong to use the word "slag"?

....

Not if you are a welder

 

[medhead]

Chips at Cabarita, not a bad way to relax back into the friendlier temperatures up here!

The chips might end up at Circular Quay if they were being eaten outdoors due to the strong winds.

Already there's one tree down blocking train services at Panania (East Hills line) & I won't be surprised if others follow suit.

There's a podcast I listen to with a segment called "Ask the Nation" but because of the way the host says it, to me it sounds like "cough The Nation."

The wind would blow the dogs off their chains down here in MEL also today.
