One man's meat, another man's gravy.

A nice twist on one mans meat, another man's poison. Where neither option is that bad. Invites thought , laughter and useful for pub banter.

Originated in the pubs of South London in the 1940s.

Long pause...
"But which is better? Meat or gravy?"
"Exactly."

As above, trap one, trap two etc. is a method of labelling individual toilet stalls in a row of lavatory cubicles by analogy with racing traps in a greyhound track. Numbering must follow the racing example so looking from the front, the rightmost cubicle is trap one, the one to the left of it is trap two etc so that the numbers read left to right for the 'racers'.

'was that you in trap one this morning? I thought someone had opened fire with a machine gun'
