Here in Oz when we see a fine a45e we say, 'you could crack a stubby on that'. A stuby being a bottle of beer with a SCREW top.
My favourite expression was " whores , theives and first trippers " with an appropriate shake of the head to show contempt .
"blowing for tugs " ment something a little different and a lot more vulgar , the act of farting !
Hi Shipmates,
How interesting that the term ' Blowing for tugs', although comparatively common amongst seaman, should have such diverse meanings depending on what part of the
country the seaman came from. It can apply to a person who is staggering drunk,
needing a drink with no money to pay for it, or suffering from acute flatulence..........
............take your pick.

He or she "Need a good stiff turking too"
We all spoke a little French "Merci Blowthrough"
What always made me laugh was about birds, the feathered kind, no matter what they were, Seagull, Tern etc they were ' SH-TE- Hawks :D

I have heard the "Flying Angel" referred to as the "Flying Tab Nab" and also the "Flying Sh*t Shute", unless this was just by some of the mad scousers I sailed with.
Roger, had you been with UCl or a number of other liner companies you may well have learned a different meaning to that saying.Quote:
