Dildo and ten eighths

1970s slang for a super idiot where dildo means idiot but the person referred to is more than a run of the mill example. Heard around UMIST in Manchester.

Kevin’s a real idiot!
No he’s not. He’s a dildo and ten eighths.

From Donald Farfrae the emigrant Scot in Thomas Hardy’s “The Mayor of Casterbridge.”

His name is a play on words cos he’s far frae hame.

Did you see them farfrae types in the back of the pub with that joint?

pots for rags

In Lancashire it means someone who either has mental illness or impaired capacity for other reasons. The allusion is to the traditional rag and bone man who collected rags in exchange for small trifles such as a jam jar or a balloon. If you were pots fer rags (pots for rags) you would do the reverse of the common sense expected approach.

Since our Tom got hit on head with that brick he’s been pots for rags!

pisscrete

The kind of concrete stained by years of being peed on by drunks and scallies like that found in multi-storey car parks and council flat stairwells.

Although it was dark as Kevin climbed the stairs he knew what sort of place it was by the odour of pisscrete in the cold air.

“I didn’t like that guy at all. He wanted his mitts on my money.”
“Yeah - he was wearing a frogshooting suit. A dead giveaway really.”
