The "Old Bamboo" endearingly refers to a long bamboo stick famously coined by Dick Van Dyke in his breakout role in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang through the song "Me ol' bamboo". More colloquially, the old bamboo can refer to a penis experiencing erectile dysfunction, possibly due to age related illness.

"Sorry love, me old bamboo don't work the way it used to"
"The pandas gone an' chewed on me old bamboo, the greedy bugger"

bamboo-zled

Tricked into thinking you’re getting real bamboo when it’s actually just some cheap crappy imitation (think, using dried marsh-grass blades or cattail leaves for creating a basket, lamp-shade, or mat/curtain, instead of da genuine natural-plastic woven slats).

I hired a fly-by-night landscaper to plant a “tubular grass” fringe around my house, but the lyin’ shyster just stuck in a weedy thicket of Japanese knotweed --- I got seriously bamboo-zled on THAT deal!
