What is a British phrase that sounds rude but is perfectly innocent
Jump to: Newest in thread
""Keep your pecker up". Apparently people used to say this without a hint of innuendo  "
well a pecker means dick over in Oz and that's where I was raised,
so when I first arrived into the UK, I was staying at my brothers place in London with his partner and mother in-law.
We were all in the kitchen together and I was talking about finding a job and my own pad.
The mother in-law just put her hand on my shoulder and said "you keep your pecker up", and she said it without batting an eyelid.
I turned as red as a beatroot 
I couldn't believe those words just came out of that sweet old ladies mouth.
My sister in law could see how embarrassed I was and burst out laughing.
Still makes me have a chuckle to myself when I think about it
