Parafox Posted 13 May 2014 Posted 13 May 2014 Titivate Rumbustious Fop/Dandy Blart (cry) Dog-eared Fourpenny one/Hooter: (If you were threatening to punch someone on the nose, "I'll give a you a fourpenny one up the 'ooter") Spangle Wimple 2 Stroke Leaded or unleaded, sir?

For example if I was doing something ill-advised or wrong: "That'll be the rock you'll perish on". Or a threat of a slap: "I'll take ma hand off your face"
