I prefer Ollie's made up ones, here's my effort:

Technical hitch: B*tch
Aunt Sally: Valley
Jarvis Cocker: Soccer
Gareth Gates: Mates

So you can have:

Got a technical of an hangover, but I'm going down the aunt with a few Gareths to watch the old Jarvis.

Sco - watch out with the use of Gareths as my interpretation rhymes with Gareth Hunt....!

Two and eight is an old dice gambling term, a game much like craps which was played sine the 13th C in England. A right 2 and 8 is not rymhing slang it is to with being an idiot gambler.

KBslittlesis

Pickwick, thank you for that.

Like so much rhyming slang, things have changed over the years, as this thread has pointed out quite well I think.

As such, 2 & 8 to me & mine was always rhyming slang for 'state'.

I stand corrected.
