Cockney Rhyming

Post by SammyDroppedHisShorts »

Anyone know the rhyme for Two One?

In terms of a University degree a 2:2 is stated as a Desmond

But what about 2:1? My pal nailed this in his degree and we were pondering

Well, apparently it's...

First = Geoff (as in Geoff Hurst/Damien Hirst)
2:1 = Attila (as in Attila the Hun)
2:2 = Desmond (as in Desmond Tutu)
Third = Douglas (as in Douglas Hurd/Thora Hird)
Pass = Khyber (as in Khyber Pass)

:shock: :?

Ah, I couldn't understand why Attila the Hun was slang for 2:1.... but I just realised it's because 1 and Hun doesn't rhyme in my northern accent, but it does when I put on a fake cockney accent!!! :-P
