It may be rhyming slang, but I meant it as a joinery term; I use to build timber framed houses. The ***** is the sharp edge of timber if I recall. 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may of used it in wood butchering, but it comes from cockney slang, not the other way round. Blimey, I was praising you for getting it right (almost 😉).

the hitman Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 I have watched 3 episodes so far - it’s initially a slow burner, however the action increases with every episode. Real hero’s in every sense of the word. Hitman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
