Words hardly used now

Apologies for lowering the tone - todger, . IMO far preferable to the words of 4 letters than end in -ck, but I haven’t heard it for ages.

You're a brick.
I wonder how that would sound to someone who's never heard it before.

It's magic?
Fab.
Just the ticket.
You're such a card.
Right on, man.
Trendy.

My five year old grandson says 'Just the ticket!'. I can't imagine where he gets it from! 🤣

Comely.

Can I do you now?
Flippin heck

Are people even affronted these days?

Flapping yer gums.

My granny used to tell me not to meither her when I was being annoying. She called Gypsies strangers.
People aren't flabbergasted any more.

You wally!
Another that was of it's time, along with being Humphried.

I still say "pictures" rather than cinema. I prefer "tuppence", "thre'pence" and "fourpence" to two pence, three pence and four pence. Not quite sure how to spell them though.

Plonker is in regular use in our household, applied to everybody but ourselves of course.

I love plonker.
You're pulling my plonker! That means taking the Mickey, but that too, is outdated now.

Raise - is getting replaced by the simplistic 'Up'.
I don't expect it to oust it from its use in the game of Poker...

Always annoyed at the loss of WHOM …just WHO seems to be used now in all cases where ‘whom’ was formerly used, and I hate the now general use of FIT instead of FITTED. ( as in “It fit him” instead of “it fitted him” ) .
There was also a recent comment that Trump “ had the morals of an alley cat” ( true ) by Biden, which was slated cos it was such an out moded term! Not that I wasn’t true!

Haven't got two ha'pennies to rub together.

Yes, and the companion to that must be "they haven't two brass farthings to rub together".
Imagine explaining to a Generation Z what a farthing was!🤪

Old biddy.
Not you, halfpint1, just that your duffer reminded me of old biddy.

I once heard a young Scottish boy, no more than about 16, refer to somebody’s ’wee biddy wife’. Loved it!

Far out! (Meaning cool)
