tiger army

a small band of travelling Hull City football fans who travel the length and breadth of England to support their team through both good and bad times - and show loyalty and spirit, singing when they are losing as well as winning, whether Dolan or Taylor are in charge - they never lose faith.

some particularly enlightened fans will own every album by the band of the same name, and will be campaigning to get 'Never Die', 'Nocturnal' and other rousing classics played before kick off instead of the usual 'slit your wrists' indie shite like Coldplay and Keane.
"when the Tiger Army's on the prowl, and the human world just brings us down".

dice night 

an alternative to a pub crawl but with the same overall intention - going out with friends and drinking - only this time using a dice.

assign different pubs a number on the dice (take two dice if u want), take it turns to roll, and go to the corresponding pub, drinking a pint and moving on.

the purpose is that it stops you getting stuck in a rut with your nights out, and can improve conversation as well as meeting people and the potential for interesting occurances.
"now then lads, who's up for a dice night tonight? I'll bring the dice, meet you in Ye Olde Starre Inne at 7pm."

Gamp is an old-fashioned English word for an umbrella which derives from a Charles Dickens character called Mrs Gamp who used to carry an umbrella around (possibly in Martin Chuzzlewit).

Not in use today, but references can be found to it in at least 2 George Formby songs "you're everything to me" and "under that blasted oak tree".
"and although the weather's damp, i can do without my gamp"

quite simply, this is pigeon shit.

This originated in Northern England approx 1996 when pigeon faeces found their way into the water supply of a popular school, causing health and safety issues to be raised.
"ewww, you just drank a glass of that water - look at the bits in it, man, it's full of flite!"

"i was sat on a bench in town having a mcdonalds and then the second i droppped a chip, a million winged-rats appeared outta nowhere."

Jordache 

a dead body found in unexpected circumstances.

derives from English scouse-soap, Brookside (now defunct) when Trevor Jordache was found buried under the patio - a truly classic TV moment.
"i was just walking the dog in the woods when i stumbled upon a large heap of clothing. When i looked more closely, to my horror i realised it was a Jordache."
