Gub Parden
Gub Parden
noun | UK Slang | Origin: Probably coined after pint #5
Definition:
A “Gub Parden” is what your mate slurs at 8:42 PM on a Friday when they mean pub garden but have been in it since noon and the sun has pickled their brain like a jar of pickled eggs behind the bar.
Characteristics:
• Contains exactly 3 wobbly picnic tables
• One broken patio heater that hasn’t worked since 2009
• A resident wasp who thinks he owns the place
• That one guy who always takes his shirt off as soon as the temperature hits 14°C
• Clouds of cigarette smoke that would be illegal indoors but are considered ‘ambience’ out here
Warning: Not to be confused with “Club Garden,” which is what Americans think you’re saying when you’re 7 pints deep and trying to explain the magic of a British summer.
