So for all of you who don't know, I'm English. English, not British. There's a difference. I doubt you lot care much though. But that's fine. ;D

Even though not many of these words are used, they are still real and have been used before, no matter how crazy they sound. ^.^

This is British Slang, or more specifically "Cockney Rhyming Slang."
