brain-box

This refers to a person's head, usually in a crude or uncomplimentary way. A berk's noggin or (rarely) a desktop computer's tower.

"Go soak your brain-box" is a suggestion to go drown yourself in a bucket. "He banged his brain-box on it" means a berk finally figured something obvious out.

cony

A generally naive, unsophisticated person. Someone easily robbed or conned out of money. A victim of cony-catchers.

Look at that cony, he looks like he just got of the bus from Nowhere, he'll be conned out of his shirt and shoes by the end of the day...

gully

That gully will fall for anything a cony-catcher puts in front of him.

apple-chaser

Someone willing to do anything, no matter how degrading, for any amount of money.

Jack's so desperate for money he'd pick up "road apples" left behind by ponies for nickle a piece. What an apple-chaser...
