Would you Adam and Eve it? Over a hundred years after it was first heard on the streets of Ye Olde London Towne Cockney rhyming slang is still going strong and this book contains the most comprehensive and entertaining guide yet. Presented in an easy-to-read A to Z format it explains the meaning of hundreds of terms from old favourites such as apples and pears (stairs) and plates of meat (feet) to the more obscure band of hope (soap) and cuts and scratches (matches) through to modern classics such as Anthea Turner (earner) and Ashley Cole (own goal) as well as providing fascinating background info and curious Cockney facts throughout. Also included are a series of language tests so that readers can brush up on their newfound knowledge on their way to becoming a true Cockney Geezer. All in all "The Ultimate Cockney Geezer's Guide to Rhyming Slang" is well worth your bread and honey to have a butcher's.
