Dutch plate = mate! As in, 'Hello me old Dutch'. :rolleyes: I know that the real Cockney's, Londoner's born in the East End of London, were really angered by people trying to be smart and using so called rhyming slang. Some places, not just in London, use back slang, which is literally using words backwards. Butcher for example is 'rehctub'. It is quite funny to hear![/QUOTE]
