Horace Wimp's definitions

Julian

A type of owl specific to the North Wales coast, known for its distinctive bald head, poor eyesight, large beak and high pitched chirp. Often found in stew.
"Henry, is that a Julian over there? It is, you know! I'm almost sure of it. If only we could hear it's distinctive, high pitched chirp...oh there it goes! Yes, it's definitely a Julian."

like Mike

If someone is 'like Mike', they have achieved the peak of physical and mental perfection. Such people will normally be extremely sporty, intelligent and witty, and as such are very rare. The original Mike to whom the phrase refers is long forgotten, but its safe to assume he was great to know, and probably damn fine to look at.
"Damn Timothy, you got hot. You're great looking."
"Why thanks, good chum."
"Yeah, you're really like Mike!"
"Please! You flatter me too much!"

Rhyl

The Most Dangerous Place in the World (TM). The hub of all drug life in the UK, if not the world. Once a popular tourist destination in North Wales - now Shit City.
"You boiz up for a cruise in Rhyl?"
"Arghhhh!"
"Wheres me crack, Julian?"

our man Flint

Used to describe someone who is being a cock, possibly inadvertently or by accident, and normally used by much bigger cocks/jerks, who incorperate the phrase into a petty rant against the normally helpless first party. Often used in description of first person to a third party, with all three present (see example).
1: Look, I'm sorry. It's not my fault, I -
2: Oh no, you forget it, sonny! You're too busy prancing about on your boat to give a fuck for us lowly workers!
3: Whats the crack here then, lads?
2: Oh the office party has only been bloody cancelled, hasn't it! And our man Flint here isn't even sorry! Prick.

good luck

Simple phrase used to catch out British spies or agents when masquerading as the enemy. When wished 'Good luck' in English by a foreign agent they find it literally impossible not to reply with 'Thanks old bean!' or something similar.

Most famously used in The Great Escape.
Hans Nazihausen: Halt! Sprechen sie Englisch?
John Smithson: Nein! Der English sind Schwein-poopen.
Hans: Haha, Ja. Good luck.
John: Thanks old bean!
Hans: AHA!
John: Oh bother.

the not-necessarily-religious

The perfect religion for those who aren't sure if they really believe in a god, but don't want to risk the big red one. Based on being as good as you can be, but not going over the top and showing up the others, the religion of the not-necessarily-religious doesn't believe in rules as such, at least not written ones. Therefore there are no commandments, but believers are asked to be nice to people and to really try and not steal things or kill people, if they can really help it. Attendance at a church is by no means compulsory, or even advised, but a number of popular pilgrimages exist, such as the centre of the civilised world, Home Bargains.
"Hey Josh, wanna come pray to God with me and my good buddies?"
"Nah, I'm one of the not-necessarily-religious."
"Oh. I didn't know you were, uh, 'like that'."
"What the hell does that mean? Son of a bitch!"
"Ah, no! My splean!"

the big red one

Essentially damnation, or the act of being condemned to Hell. Can also be used as a noun for Hell itself.
"That bitch Satan is sure gonna get the big red one, or my name ain't Bernard God."

"Off you go, Hitler! See you in the big red one!"
