Shit across the bows

On realising that last night’s disturbingly authentically Greek kebab mixed with large amounts of disturbingly authentic Greek wine will be unlikely to make it through the hand operated flush system aboard The Good Ship Aqualung, you are required to launch yourself into the Mediterranean, swim forward to the anchor chain and cling to it while voiding your bowels. All crew will pretend this is not happening but tell you about the number of fish feeding on your turds.

Also known as Laying Deep Sea Cable or Having a Matthew White (rhyming slang)
Captain, looks like we’re about to take a Shit Across The Bows
I’ll just lay some deep sea cable and then we can go for breakfast
Which way is the current? I need a Matthew White.

toss-across collecting

A creative method of scavenging for discarded returnable beverage-containers along the road; it involves starting out from your house and walking along one side of the road and throwing any returnables that you find on that side across the road to the other side, so that you can then collect all the returnables from both sides of the road on your way back again; this eliminates your having to carry any heavy bags of containers "the wrong way", i.e., in the opposite direction from your home, where you want to transport all the containers for processing and bagging up for the redemption center.
Toss-across collecting is a great way to save time and effort when scavenging for discarded empties; just don't toss glass containers, though, since they can easily shatter if they land on a rock or sizeable stone. Also, put some water or a small pebble inside the super-lightweight plastic bottles, so that they will be heavy enough to sail all the way across the road, especially if there's a breeze blowing in the opposite direction.
