Free Cheese 

An expression for when you get something for free.

Originating from a band of Cornish smugglers who abandoned a load of cheese at the bottom of a beach, after not being able to carry it up the steep slope. The local villagers stole it before they could get back to it, creating the phrase "free cheese".

A toe rag was originally a foot wrapping used, since mediaeval times up until the mid-nineteenth century, to protect the foot from chafing by boots or shoes. As these were, quite literally, rags they weren’t usually washed, and so with use they became very smelly until they were thrown away. Because of the similarity in smell, toe rag also became the name applied to dried, salted cod or other things with a strong, unpleasant, fishy smell. It didn’t take that long before the name was applied to someone who was an obnoxious, unpleasant OIC.
1 “Socks! Those aren’t socks you smelly git, they’re toe rags!”
