I would wager a shiny euro that ours will be the only house in Finistère that will be having pie and mash and liquor for dinner tonight.

Singing "boiled beef & carrots" to myself (because I'm clearly an ex Cockney street urchin) but somehow I crowbar the line "you look neat, talk about a treat" from Any Old Iron into it.

Full marks to people answering 'Dog and Bone' = Phone which is possibly one of the most widely known .

As a teenager, my father would often tell me to get my Barnet cut - derived from Barnet Fair = hair.

A couple of short videos that illustrate Cockney can be seen below:

This one explains the language and definition of a cockney:

One more for , from my trip to South some years back. (The 's trunk is probably so called based on a slightly earlier usage of the word meaning "hollow pipe," though some think it might have been influenced by "trump[eting].")

πŸ‘‰ And in , "elephant" means "drunk" β€” rhyming based on "elephant's trunk." πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§
