HOW TO HAVE A COCKNEY RHYMING CHRISTMAS sent to me by Robert Alistair Jones
Would you Christmas Eve it! The festive period is here again so we thought we’d show you how to have a proper cockney Christmas, explained in old East End cockney rhyming slang.
And because we at Happy2Move are legit Londoners, we can even throw in the non-cockney meanings in case you don’t know your apples and pears from your dog and bone.
ON CHRISTMAS EVE…
