economy leech

An individual who leaves one region to profit from the economic prosperity of another region. Generally, economy leeches have no marketable skills and and therefore contribute very little to the well being of their new environment. They arrive in droves and their presence usually results in a steep increase in rent prices. Economy leeches usually appear disoriented in traffic, and can be identified by their out-of-province license plates and their constant whining about social problems, which they themselves have caused.

In Alberta, economy leeches are sometimes called Buffalo Hunters, in reference to the 19th European settlers who raped and pillaged the bison population of the prairie provinces for their precious hides.

Lechlade

The head of navigation of the River Thames, and about four miles from Fairford. A really cool place to grow up in, and learn how to drink beer. We had a motorcycle race circuit from Cox's Service Station where I used to work, down the High Street, around the bend by the church, right into Sherborne Street and back to Cox's. In the summer, we drank beer by the side of the River Thames. In the winter we drank beer or cider in the Swan Inn, and sometimes in the Red Lion. Incidently, the landlord of the Red Lion at the time was one Douggie Wainright, who later in life got shot dead by Michael Ryan in the Hungerford Massacre.
We went to Lechlade the other day to drink some beer. Ces puked up all over the Red Lion carpet while Raz poured his beer over the landlords shoes.

Wring out the leeches

To 'Wring out the leeches' is to spend time solving a problem. Said problem will often 'suck the life' out of you- hence the use of leeches as the explanatory word for problem. Wringing out the leeches is also used to describe an impending argument over an issue with a mate. Phrase is said with much trepidation and detest for the action.
Carly: "Nana- it's GAME NIGHT! do you want to come to SigEp with me for Beirut"

Nana: "Oh, Carly! I can't! I've been having a few issues with my Man. We really need to wring out the leeches."

Carly: "Ouch, no wonder you've been so drained- All Right, we'll party next time"
