"Bollocks"

I'm sure more than a few of you are familiar with the term 'bollocks' as in 'that's a load of old bollocks' meaning (more or less translated) that's a load of old rubbish. Not a very nice thing to say (bollocks=balls). Maybe some of you might even be familiar with the Sex-Pistols 'Never Mind the Bollocks'.

However, if one were to say 'thats the dogs bollocks',  that's a compliment as in the 'Queen was the dogs bollocks'!

There is a point to this!!!!! See picture .. someone gave me this dog, complete with bollocks for my birthday. Lift up the tail and insert tea candle. Now, thats a load of old bollocks!!!!

Here endeth the English lesson for today!!!!!!!!
