British Slang Dictionary
As we haven't had a QOTW for a few weeks, thought we'd try something a little different. We'd like you to suggest phrases, bits of slang you know and you find amusing and give their definitions.

To Irish ears
Does britain even have slang? Surely there's not enough time with watching the queen and drinking tea and all that lark? Maybe you have different names for your umbrellas like ones portable plastic rain displacement device?
I've also heard you's say "What what?" alot and "My good man Jeeves".
And dessert is called pudding despite it not being pudding.

someone from Ireland once objected to the phrase Irish-up
To refer to the practice of adding whiskey to frosties. If an Irish coffee has whiskey, why cant breakfast cereal follow the same practice?
They were Grrreat! If you were wondering by the way.
