Thought you might like these to work out.
On yer Loaf of Bread, you've got your Barnet Fair (or maybe a Syrup of Figs). On yer Boat Race, you have yer Mince Pies, King Lears and I Suppose. In yer North and South you've got yer Hampstead Heath. Yer Loaf sits on yer Gregory Peck, which sits on yer Noddy Holder. If you're a woman you might have Bristol Cities (or Thrupenny Bits) on yer Bristol and West.
We've all got a pair of Chalk Farms poking out with a pair of German Bands at the end. In yer Derby Kelly lives yer Newington Butts. Don't eat too much in case yer Fish and Chips start expanding.
Here is some cockney slang words that is still used today. There is loads more.

Thanks for publishing this one! I had a great time getting it together. The experience was fairly easy so I will be trying my hand at other DIY templates as well. Your site is the best I have used in the last 36 years of my career as an Activity Director, Certified! I wish I had known about your site whenever it first started! So much content and idea sharing… no need to reinvent the wheel! 😊
