    I`m an Aussie, so I`ve heard a fair few of them & I even use them myself.

    I’m happy to see that some new slang has been added recently. At least they weren’t current when I lived there in 1981.

    Think this said 14/18. This was quite amusing not the London slang I’m familiar with never heard of some, others were what we would say in Yorkshire as definitely not a Londoner but a Yorkshire lass up North not down South, ha ha. Also some were near the knuckle like wanker I don’t mind as very broad minded but some might moan, anyway enjoyed this one very funny,. !!

    15/18

    I’ve lived (Notting Hill) and worked (Old Bond St) in London, but I obviously didn’t know all of these terms.

    16/18 Flunked on two, otherwise easy, these are not used just in London I would say they are mostly universal in England, been to London many yrs ago, I’m a northern lass from South Yorkshire and heard and use many of these passed down from parents etc. Depends very much what age you are, sure younger kids won’t know them. Now if we get into Cockney rhyming slang that’s another kettle of fish altogether, LOL.
