Ironic slang name for Taroona High School near Hobart (the capital city of Tasmania, Australia).
Used to jokingly make a very good, but quite ordinary, state public school attended by Princess Mary of Denmark (formerly plain Mary Donaldson of Tasmania), sound like an impressive and expensive private school.
"No, I've decided not to send Elizabeth to St Michael's Collegiate. She will be attending Princess Mary College instead."
which means
"No, don't be stupid! I can't afford to send her to that snobbish school. She can go to Taroona High instead like her father."
Australian "Love account manager" and gold-digger who married into the Danish Royal Family in 2004. Known for using pointy-toed stillettoes to nail the balls of Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark (aka 'the Dumbling') to the walls of a share-house in Sydney, Australia, on their first date. Famous for crying on Denmark television as she recounted her love for her dead grandmother - before a reporter revealed he had found her letters in Mary's trash bin. The Danish Royal Family invented the 'post-nuptial agreement' as damage control in the wake of revelations about Mary's relatives, who include a convicted child rapist, Brendan Johncock.
Crown Princess Mary of Denmark, born plain Mary Donaldson in the boondocks of Tasmania, rose to fame, and then infamy, as the novelty of having a Nordic Imelda Marcos wore off and the Danish taxpayer revoted when she installed 20 bathrooms in the palace.

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
