Hawkesby 

NZ slang word for Money.

This comes from when Media personality/broadcaster John Hawkesby received a large pay out from TVNZ following dismissal.

Often used to describe something that seems overpriced.

"It's been a long ghastly affair from beginning to end," she said. "And what hurts is that it should never have been called the Hawkesby affair ... Now our name is forever tainted."
That's a lot of Hawkesbys for a beer.

To describe an overpriced very average beer.

Port Hawkesbury 

This place is the shit-hole of Cape Breton. In fact, it is the shit-hole of the entire world. It is where everything good in life (especially Wal-Mart) goes to die a horrible, slow, painful death of agony and woe.
Girl: "EW! Where the fuck did we land ourselves? This place looks like God ate a huge fucking burrito and shit on a rock."
Guy: "Oh... we're in Port Hawkesbury. HOW THE FUCK DID THAT HAPPEN?"

It is said of the situation where a person has the bad luck to make contact with his testicles against an undefined surface or object, intentioned or not.
Given the nature of the word, it is more appropriate to design cases where the interaction is made with a moving object, for example, a ball.
Although it is extremely painful for the victim, it tends to be considerably funny to people who witness it.
Today in the baseball game the pitcher took a nutshot; the baseball hit him in the nuts.

Man, I just watched the funniest nutshot video ever.
