Guest Ditch_Shitter Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 That's interesting shit, Twins. Thanks As it happens, one of the little luxuries in life I've been promising myself for many decades now is the complete edition of Eric Partridges 'Dictionary of English Slang'. In fact, being such a huge tome, I always figured it'd cost an absolute fortune. Know what? I sussed out, just the other night, that it can now be bought, brand spanking, for between about £20 and £60, depending on which edition ye want and what cover! Maybe one of these days then .....
