Why MrExcel is like Hitch Hiking


Per the urban dictionary, potless means "completely out of money".
According to the same dictionary, "boracic lint" means "skint" (never heard of that one either), which also means "having no money" -- "flat broke" in the US.
Ain't slang wonderful?

I knew what both them words meant...because im special I guess :biggrin:
I love urban dictionaries though, they are lots of fun!

So...special translates as "from the UK" ? :LOL:
I wish I had some slang to throw back...but the thing about it is that I rarely know what I say that might be lost in translation.
I've learned more UK slang/terminology just hanging around this lounge than in the rest of my life put together!:ROFLMAO:

To explain, for those not in the know. A Lady Godiva is half a Paul McKenna, or a hundredth of a monkey. A monkey is ¼ of an "Archer" or 20 ponys
 
Do me a lemon, Lady Godiva = 5 sovs or half an Ayrton if anything.

Come on you Irons.
 
Ayrton... There's one of my old favourites. Think I might start using it again.
