That looks like a fascinating article.
As a recent graduate I did a few days' work for a really fucking shifty friend of a friend who ran a ticket agency, essentially running around the West End picking up and dropping off tickets for gigs and shows etc for this shady Paddy, for him to rip off coachloads of Japanese tourists.

He had an indecipherable slang term for all different sums, so he could openly discuss the real cost or selling prices of tickets over the phone, right in front of his victims. To the untrained ear he was talking pure gibberish.

It interested me as I could imagine the lineage of this behaviour going back to Hogarthian times and beyond: the crafty geezer stitching up out-of-towners.

Sorry - I've just realised how dull this post is.

Story of my life, that is.
One that really perplexed me was a 'rofe' - having glanced at that article I see that it represents £4, and is backslang.
