Haven't had a decent chip butty for yonks, and there's masses of folk round here that'd kill for a good bacon sarnie. Hmmmm.... I see what you mean, but it's probably worth bearing in mind that there is absolutely nothing silly enough that otherwise normal people will adopt for common useage........ and in some cases, the sillier the better. Check out rhyming slang or local dialects and their associated distinctive words for example. These form a kind of code designed to ensure that no-body else will have a clue what you're talking about. Having said all that though, LONG LIVE LOCAL SLANG!!
Got to go now, I'm as busy as a one armed paper-hanger and I'll be as flat out as a lizard drinking to get through today before I shoot through this arvo.
