yeah but if they'd led with that they'd have had the spooners sticking their boats to the frog!

Ale-luia.

What a load of crap.

can someone help me understand 18:38?

Kard,

spooners(Gentle folk that like to sip in a whetherpoon establishment(affectionatley known over here as a 'Spoons)

boats (race) = face

frog (& toad) = Road.

So, you could say

"yeah but if the JSO eco nutters led with that they would have had the fine outstanding patrons of Whetherspoons glueing their faces to the road" (or pavement I think you may call it).

 

Thanks! Wow you Brits love your slang etc! 

I am not seeing a problem. It the unlikely event hops become unpalatable in ale then surely the solution is to move where hops are grown to a more appropriate location where they'll get the same growing conditions they were traditionally grown in.

Not 'Brits' in general, Kardashev, just the ones looking for attention and part-time employment.

It's mostly Cockney anyway.

Sime of the beer festival grog my local spoons has been sloshing up has already been affected by the taste of it :-(

one benefit was the house ales were sold off at 99p a pint to free the pumps up for Camera muck.

Kardishev, yeah just a bit of fun these days me old china (China plate - mate) but the origins of Rhymming slang do represent a serious need. I work with a lot of septics (septic tank - Yank) and I have taught them quite a bit. Some of our emails are fun now.

I see you are one of the fine upstanding citizens who frequent the establishment known as 'Spoons.

Me to, if I can get to one.  Sadly my local one shut down, was a bit small for a 'Spoons and also a bit of a dive.
