glassblower's arse

From the Liverpool argot 'Scouse' - a runny nose, a pun on diarrhoea. Probably a skit at the glassblower's trade which would involve some straining, a hazardous practice for someone suffering any looseness of the bowels. (There is a traditional glass industry at St. Helen's, on the Mersey estuary east and inland of Liverpool.)

My nose is running like a glassblower's arse!

Diarrhoea

The correct UK spelling OED.

Spelling diarrhoea any other way is shit. I am suffering from diarrhoea, therefore my poo is not very thick, unlike someone who cannot use a dictionary or spellchecker.
