Cockney RHYMING slang.
You use a word that rhymes with the real word (don't ask me why, been going on for generations in the East End of London).
e.g. I went up the apples and pears, had a Rosie Lee and a hit and miss, shaved my boat and rubbed my Chalfonts.
Translated means: I went upstairs, had a cup of tea and a p.ss, shaved my face and rubbed my piles.
( Boat Race rhymes with face, Chalfont St Gile rhymes with piles)
Think of Dick Van Dyke's very bad impression of an East End accent in Mary Poppins and you have the voice somewhere nearish.
Does this make any sense at all to America? I think I'd better go to bed again.

You want Americans to make sense of that? LOL You guys drive lorries, smoke fags, and hit and miss the loo in a flat! LOL
Were I not of british descent I wouldn't have a clue to what anyone was talking about in England! LOL

Dear not4hire
You've lost me now!Please translate.
Charlie, the only 'raspberry' one I know for sure is before PC language and it is 'raspberry ripple' for a disabled person (work it out, its not very complementary)
I think I may have heard Raspberry tart as a recent one. Is it to do with antisocial smells?
Have you got East End blood in you Charlie?
The East End language goes back generations, there is even a dictionary available on the Net if you want to really confuse people or write to a British friend (it does translations for you into different British regional dialects) You're not really supposed to invent your own new ones but everyone does.
Here is another very traditional one
Hello my old China (mate-china plate) - what do you say we pop around to the Jack (Jack Tar-bar). I'll buy you a pig's ear and you can rabbit (rabbit and pork) about your teapot lids (kids).
There really are some people who talk like this but not many left.

How about some ones in use in the UK but are American influenced ones then:
"Don't give Jonny beans, they make him Mork"
or
Everyone out of the loo, I need a Forrest
or
I need some Frankie Vaughn magazines so I can go and have a Sherman/Jodrell/J Arthur
Or
No more Britneys or I'll Wallace
or
If being really nasty:
Keep your kids away from him, he's an Uncle Fester
I'll stop now and talk proper English

Best kind I think, best of both worlds and all that ;D
So lets go to the conference and get Schindlers on an Aristotle or two.
Do you think the Septic Tanks on this site understand a word we're saying?

Calling people on this site "Septic tanks" may be funny to you But it sure as hell aint funny to me!!!!
I may scream and yell at certain people that show up here and most need it but I would never lump all these people together as a human waste receptacle.
