What is wrong with being called “A sweaty sock”? It is only c’ockney rhyming slang for ‘jock’ It is not offensive in anyway is it? All rhyming slang is meant to be funny, or so I thought “me old c’ock sparrow” The modern ones are even more so, and if I can be @rsed I will go look a few up and feed them back to you….right now I am off for a Jack Dee!

she aint cockney and it didnt rhyme!!!!!!

she is far more north than cockney :wink:

understood mary, its harder for me living here speaking english to my mates and scottish to my family i spose you could call me bi-lingual as of course there is a language concept here!!

i fight both corners if it effects me and that post (more in fact the poster) did. i do need to learn to curb my response… the curse of the typed word strikes again!

up britain, thats what i say!! TT did have a lot of knowledge inbetween the lines, and thats one of them i deffo agree with :D

She as in ‘Emma’? and what didn’t rhyme? You don’t have to be a cockney to use the slang do you? I/we often use French or Latin phrases in common speak do we not? …..C’est la vie :twisted:

(sorry, edit as meant to quote observer)

if you read my post before that one and the one after it i think i have explained myself, and i was just being as shallow as her in mentioning the rhyming slang bit… she is all for england rather than britain, and cockney rhyming slang is London, not england….

what works for the goose………………

im yet to feel anyything worth embracing from emma lol, but im totally with you on what you are saying honestly!!!!!

i sense hostility from her threads and regretably replied as such (curse of the typed word again im afraid)

but as i said, i love england, i love scotland, but hate it when bitterness arises, especially in the context of certain peoples threads. perhaps if i read it on another day at another time i would have responded differently, but i cant take it back cos that was me being me at that time and i have to stand by that

live and let live

love and be loved :D
