I found this thread on AnswerBank, but it's only got 230 replies so it can't be the same one - or can it?

When you mentioned Knitting Biscuits,I thought that meant that you were having a euphemistic poo.

Interesting concept of a euphemism for a euphemism? Probably are some?

I am always gentle with you - I was only joining in the spirit of this thread.

Now as for Trevor, I think he's looking for sterner stuff!

not really a euphemism, but 2 deep.
In cockerney rhyme, Arris = Arse
from- Aristottle / bottle.
bottle and glass /...not too deep, I 'pose.

Quite amazingly whilst giving deep and serious thought to my last post in this thread my thouhts drifted to Cockney Slyming Rang and I did a bit of Googling (no Mamya this is not a sexual deviance) and I tried to dig out the explanation of the term "berk" in the situation where someone is accused of being one.

I was unable to find the official explanation although I understand it to be slyming rang for a part of the female anatomy that Mamya has recently adopoted due the poser double century achievement.

Which,BEGS THE QUESTION (oh no) Which other Cockney slyming rangs are similarly offensive?
