Parlez-vous l'Anglais?...

I’ve just been discussing the finer points of the English language with my housemate. I commented that I was ‘cream crackered’ as I came back from the gym. This was met with a blank expression and lead to an explanation that it is rhyming slang for ‘nakkered’. And then I had to explain that ‘nakkered’ meant tired, but that it can also mean broken. Then Ryan tried by saying ‘yeah man, I’m totally nakkers’. To which I had to point out that ‘nakkers’ means testicles.

Good to know my dedication to GSCE English wasn’t all for nought.
