Woo Hoo Mort found a joey in cloggie land
what is a joey?
Welcome back. I trust you enjoyed your sojourn. A Joey is a baby kangaroo.Or a "joanna" Cockney rhyming slang for piano, but I would not expect you to know that. I'm afraid it only adds a very tiny amount to your education.
Hi BonesAlthough kh is correct, i believe Maffi was using a bit of rhyming slang, joey---joanna---piano.You do need to say piano in a Cockney accent 'pianna'
I now see that kh agrees, there was such a large space that it was off the bottom of my screen, when I posted.
I have never heard it abbreviated though... I shall remember that.
