Gutter spare

In bowling: when the ball goes into the gutter on the first roll of the frame, but then knocks down all pins on the second try.

Your strikes are backward! You’ll never improve your score if you keep throwing gutter spares back to back!

spare pair

Noun. The underwear you carry in case you have need of it.

Synonym: second pair

When I hit the town I always slip a spare pair in my clutch in case it turns into an all-nighter.

Cheeki is the best spare pair out there, because it's sealed and won't get dirty in the bottom of my bag.

spare ground

The perineum - the bit of flesh between a scrotum and arsehole that can't be seen by it's owner unless a camera phone is employed, or a mirror placed on the floor.
By wiping a clean finger on the spare gound and then sniffing it or placing it under his partner's nose, a man thus enables himself to check the current hygeine status of his genital area.

Timothy - "Here Brenda, have a sniff at my finger".
Brenda - "(Sniffs) What the fuck Timothy! Your finger smells like shite! What the fuck have you been doing?"
Timothy - "Nowt. I've just ran it up my spare ground to see if I could get away without going for a shower before I get Knighted at Buckingham Palace today".
