Okay, also there is terminology/slang that is localised mainly to UK and Ireland. And also some that have meanings that are beyong the usual oones. So i'll list what they roughly mean.

Castin(g) - Creating something by moulding it, or along those lines.

ol' baba - Grandad.

buggered - fuked, usually means analy (don't just see it as "oh, thats so gay", it's past that...i.e. not literal)...

Stalkin(g) - doesn't exactly mean stalking someone you like or something, in a perverse way. But more like someone/something stalking it's prey, like a eagle stalking it's prey, or lion...

Maties - friends.

blunt - spliff, in short. But once again, past that.

langer - Irish term meaning cunt. "Youse a fuking langer"

hoor - I used to spell it this way for irony purposes. But also used to differentiate with the stigma that a 'whore' is just someone who sells themselves for sex. But most people in this world are hoors, one way or the other. Some less so than others.

banger - sausage, get it? *remember, spoof/satire*

Sour and the rummy - sour is alcoholic drink, and rummy is well, an alcoholic i guess...sour is a drink only when with rummy on the piece i did, the other sour has it's usual meaning...

Pub - it's a place which is mainly a bar. but usually also does hot food. Sometimes karaoke, quiz nights etc.

yummy and the sour - tasty and the, well, sour...what doesnt taste nice (usually)...on it's own anyway...

tool - someone that is a tool. Like "You're a tool to him, a tool he uses for his own gain". Or someting like that.

Sorry if that all sounded patronising. But as i said, i think at least one person will be stuck with some of the lingo, as it is localised.
