In the West End it would be "that syphilitic reprobate". Same implication.

:wah: Thank you Carolly I keep coming back to this thread hoping I will somehow figure it all out. I have given it my upmost attention and think I may be understand it a bit better now. I actually understood what Spot said "swot I said innit! he said "It is what I said isn't it." am I right. :yh_rotfl This is giving me gray hair.

[QUOTE]Carla your post so made me laugh.....hope this will help you babe

Rhyming Slang phrases are derived from taking an expression which rhymes with a word and then using that expression instead of the word. For example the word "look" rhymes with "butcher's hook". In many cases the rhyming word is omitted - so you won't find too many Londoners having a "bucher's hook" at this site, but you might find a few having a "butcher's".

The rhyming word is not always omitted so C.ockney expressions can vary in their construction, and it is simply a matter of convention which version is used.See simple[/QUOTE]
