fill the moat

v. phrase. British euphemism for emptying one's bladder. Similar to watering the cricketfield, but with more urgency and volume.

Cor blimey mate. I don't half need to fill the moat, and no mistake.

I just got to sell my husband's signed football collection and I'll have enough naughty cash and penicillin money to make next weekend rock.

bonspiel

n. "sporting" activity in which marginally inebriated Canadians curl large lumps of granite down a frozen carpet of ice in order to obtain a "hammer" which, I believe, is the metric equivalent of a "fifth" of rye. Oddly enough a "fifth", in curling, is a player too incompetent to play well. Brooms are used to clear debris off the ice and roller blades can be worn for decreased traction but aren't compulsory.

Originally the game was played on Scotland's lakes by English soldiers with frozen lumps of haggis.

Dude! I feel like a bonspiel tonight! Let's totally whip some stones into the hack and try to knock out some inturns with a double raise!

Listen to yourself. You've only been curling for a month and already you sound like a Canadian stoner.

Hurry hard!

milk the steel goat

n. radical skateboarding move in which one leaps onto and over a car and lands on the board, which has gone under the car. The car should preferably be stationary and not moving at highway speed.

Dude! Did you mean to do a milk the steel goat or did you accidently swerve into traffic?

Eudlo

place. Hamlet in Australia reknowned for its drover-fueled wallaby husbandry activity and gravel piles strategically placed to block the views of the lamers sand-surfing. The abscence of any competitive sports teams makes it a codger's paradise.

Often compared unfavourably to Riker's Island by the Greater Brisbane Tourist Council, Eudlo is fast becoming a go-to destination for NASA and other groups looking to test vehicles on inhospitable ground.

"Beautiful plumage!" and other catch-phrases are often heard at the Eudlo and District Monty Python Festival every spring.

..............................

G'Day mate! Fancy a stride down Eudlo way tonight? We could toss some Fosters into the chunder wagon and melon a kangy. My esopho's drier than a gecko's armpit.

Struth! My shiela will do me an injury if we rattle the woomerra again!

Crickey-split!

guard

n. An ice-curling term for a granite stone large enough to prevent opposition rocks from hacking into the button. Traditionally a guard is pushed into the house in the later stages of the draw to sweep a tie.

Nice guard placement. I can almost taste the tankard coffee!

Yeah! We will be totally briaring this week-end.

fylup

n. replenishment of energy, usually after an extended period of decadence or studying.

I am so beat that a calming fylup at the park is totally needed before I can even talk.

Why is the cafe always closed when I crave a fylup?
