potent (boy)

amazing, mental, very good indeed. Used to describe objects or experiences rather than people. The addition of boy at the end can be used to add extra emphasis.

"Shall we go up the park and drink some Buckfast?
"Oh aye, its a potent day for it. Lets go"
"I scored some weed last night so take your pipe as well."
"Potent boy!"

Up Bys!

Originated as a term used to describe pulling a wheely on ones bicycle but has since evolved into a commonly heard piece of street banter.

On seeing your friend on the other side of the street, or perhaps whilst passing in a car with the window rolled down as a friendly rousing gesture shout "Uuuuuuuuup bys!" with raising pitch on the 'up' and even higher pitch for the secondary 'bys'.
