Where my understanding is it used to be reference to any woman with easy virtue. They are now just skanky, or maybe sl#@s, (I cant say that word, it dont sit right with me).

Anyhoo, just my two cents

Flipping Nora! This still going on then? People can't mind their beeswax and harp on till they rattle their dags and put some hard yakka in! His nibs will go spare when they can't count on the wage slaves - bless their little cotton socks!

A right ding-dong hullaballoo this is - she'll be right when the day is done and avoiding the bum's rush. I'm still a peeping Tom in this thread (or should that be a Peking Tom?)

Now we're really whittling down to the nub of the matter and scousing out the gems! Good to see no-one with a beef and it's all over bar the shouting!

My Nana , a Londoner, used to say "What's up c*ck ?" Us kids thought it was hilarious, along with her calling someone a "silly arse". Miss the old chook
