Doing a Colin

To "do a Colin" is a synonym for any broken promise/lie.

Spawned from the twitter trend #IamColin. In reference to twitter user @cwarr07 who promised to donate 100 pounds to a cancer charity if he lost a bet. He lost and refused to pay. This started a twitter trend where people have been donating on his behalf to the Sir Bobby Robson Foundation raising almost 1000 pounds.
