Now, I'm probably the last one not to know about this, but I was just on a Cockney rhyming slang guide and HAD to share my delight at seeing this:

HA! XD

The funny thing is that I'd actually heard the word "Bertie" used in that context before on British comedies and stuff, and thought, "Haha, I didn't know 'Bertie' meant that; I wonder if it comes from Bertie Wooster," but I wasn't actually SERIOUS! XD

It makes things all the better.

I'm going to remember that slang and start speaking all Cockney-like. I shall rule at it.

Or... you know... not.

Odd... (here going through the archives for reasons of insomnia) I'd always heard 'Wooly Woofter' but there you go.
