"The Dog's Bollocks" (aka "The Mutt's Nuts") was a popular phrase in the late 90s. Not quite as popular now, but still in use. Means "Damn Fine" - like, indeed, "The Cat's Meow."
It's derivation? Heaven only knows. Although dogs are clearly very fond of their bollocks. But still.
Oh fuck. It's Spin the Bottle? Man, I've heard all about that one. Bugger bugger bugger BUGGER.
GAH!!!!
WolverWes! Fay, I'm praying to them for you.
The dog's bollocks does indeed mean a good thing. Much like the donkey's knob really.
FayJay I think they repeat Angel at midnight on Saturday, if you miss it.
Got it. Thank you. I could have probably figured it out. If it was just "STB was dog's bollocks." That would probably mean bad. "STB was the dog's bollocks." is obviously good.
wrod. It's all about the article.
I'm patting myself on the back right now.
Did anyone else play a game where one person randomly called out letters one at a time and everyone else took a step forward if that letter was in your name. You took two steps if it was a capital letter and it was decided pre-game as to whether middle names were included. I think it was more a girls game.
This game popped into my mind the other day whilst I was checking out that baby name internet site. You'd get some strange results with some of those.
Something else I've noticed over the last few years is the dearth of children playing in playgrounds. It seems to me that as councils replaced risky 'they'll sue us if their kids hurt themselves' equipment with 'unable to do your kid an injury' equipment kids sorta stopped using the playgrounds. Maybe other places NSM.
It may also be the lack of responsible adults to take them there.

Yes! It was like What Time Is It Mr Wolf, a little.
I'm very upset about the lack of seesaws. In Michigan, at least, the two kids on a seesaw is still the symbol for a playground, but I looked for 2 years and couldn't find any.
