Blighty 

A nickname for London. According to my friend, a life-long resident and of Hindu origins, it is from the Hindi for 'overseas' - 'vilaiyat'.

Blighty Wound 

1. A war wound which was not serious enough to kill or maim but was serious enough for the soldier to be sent home or to blighty. Also known as a million-dollar wound these could sometimes be self-inflicted for example a soldier shooting himself in the foot.

2. The damage inflicted on the UK by Brexit.

The UK has really shot itself in the foot with Brexit, it's a real Blighty Wound.

Hangovers can count if passed of as food poisoning
