Gateshead

[bobbinwales]

I though Barnet was Barnet Fair and rhmyning slang for hair but I have heard it used for head too I think

[mallyh]

i thought loaf of bread was head never heard barnet for head but we live and learn x

[THECORBYLOON]

If ii is Gateshead, "loaf of bread" is Cockney for "head" and "Barnet Fair" is "hair".

The question suggests the regular word and Cockney are reversed and then gets the Cockney wrong.
