Wow Ernestine. You deserve a medal for putting this all in rhythm and rhyme with the Cockney slang as well! There were so many I had never heard, and this site is so interesting entering the domain of other languages and culture. Thank you for sharing. Karin Anderson

Crikey Ernestine how on earth did you manage this one. I bet you were ready for a brandy by the time you'd finished it. a great read reminding of our trips to London when we were kids. the barrow boys were everywhere and shouting in the streets. I dont think you hear it so much now. Great read well done. Regards Dave T.10/10/10

The only one I've heard a lot was 'Apple and Pears' my Mother-In-Law use to say different one's and that one sticks out in my mind. This poem has wonderful flow and excellent rhyming. I thoroughly enjoyed the read Ernestine.--Melvina--

Ernestine I can't hold a match to the rhyming slang you catch I really think that you could teach me about a thing or two. Love from David

What a brilliantly pieced together poem of cockney slang, really entertaining Ernestine You really are very 'Pillow and Sheet' um..'Sweet! ' O.k.. I made that one up, but I'm sure that's how all these sayings came to be All the best Love duncan X
