A face like......a bulldog licking piss off a nettle. Used (natch) of ugly women.
Also, a commonly used derogatory term for male homosexuals is "chutney ferret".
And north American airlines all now seem to refer to disembarking an aircraft as "deplaning".
And it almost goes without saying that the standard greeting is now "Lo, [insert name]", followed by a 5 second pause before the other party replies "Lo". Jonti has a lot to answer for!
Plenty more where they came from.
