Yeah you're right, it originally started in Victorian London and spreaded around the world. |
Thats cool, whats the purpose ofit again? |
Back in Victorian times, it was widely used by Butchers and greengrocers, as slang communication, they could talk to each other but no one else would understand them unless they knew the lingo (and not many did).
It's like here in the Eastend with the Cockney lingo still going strong.
I am now going up the apples to have a butchers at my barnet in the mirror.
