Nine bob note

A pseudo-comical term used to describe an effeminate man. It was in common use prior to the decimalisation of the currency in 1971, when a ‘bob’ meant one shilling. It refers to the ten shilling note (10/-); and alludes to a male who seeks sexual comfort from other males with a fraudulent currency note or forgery.

‘Aubrey likes to collect recipes and is always gossiping with girls. I’m sure he’s a nine bob note!’

bent as a nine bob note 

Extremely homosexual.

British slang, "bent" being slang for gay, and a "nine bob note" being a fictitious currency ("bob" is slang for shilling, or post-decimalization, a five pent coin).

Similar to US slang "queer as a three dollar bill".

That guy in the hot pants was bent as a nine bob note!

Stroad

Noun. Portmanteau of "street" and "road": it describes a street, er, road, built for high speed, but with multiple access points. Excessive width is a common feature. A common feature in suburbia, especially along commercial strips. Unsafe at any speed, their extreme width and straightness paradoxically induces speeding. Somewhat more neutral than synonymous traffic sewer.

Did you see what the traffic engineers want to do to our street? They're going to turn it into a total stroad!
