    I managed to slice a big lump out of my toe over the weekend with a strimmer. So me and the Mayor were in bed last night and she asked me how my Barley Mow was. I replied, it's Batman and Robin.

    That's it, really. carry on.

    Isn't pub now "Nuclear" ? As in nuclear sub.

    I prefer Ollie's made up ones, here's my effort:

    Technical hitch: B*tch
    Aunt Sally: Valley
    Jarvis Cocker: Soccer
    Gareth Gates: Mates

    So you can have:

  • stonemuse

    According to a website explaining slang:

    cheque or dud cheque/passing a dud cheque - originated in the 1800's from London Stock Exchange metaphor-based slang, in which, according to 1870 Brewer, a kite is '...a worthless bill...' and kite-flying is '... to obtain money on bills.... as a kite flutters in the air, and is a mere toy, so these bills fly about, but are light and worthless.' A kite-dropper is a person who passes dud cheques. Cassell's more modern dictionary of slang explains that kite-flying is the practice of raising money through transfer of accounts between banks and creating a false balance, against which (dud) cheques are then cashed. The original Stock Exchange kite term likely fostered other meanings found in US/Canadian prison slang for smuggled notes, letters, etc., and which also probably relate to early English use of the word kite for a token payment (actually a guinea, which would have been an artificially low amount) given to a junior legal counsel for defending a prisoner in court who is without, or cannot afford, proper defence.
