A lesson in Cockney rhyming slang

A quick lesson in Cockney rhyming slang:

Gravy = ('gravy' rhymes with 'navy') Army and Navy = "Pass the Army, please."
Legs = ('legs' rhymes with 'eggs') Bacon and Eggs = "She has great 'bacons'"
Money = ('money' rhymes with 'honey') Bees & Honey = "They have a lot of 'bees'"
Knees = ('knees' rhymes with 'cheese') Bisquits & Cheese = "I landed on my 'bisquits'"
Head = ('head' rhymes with 'bread') Loaf of Bread = "Use your 'Loaf'!"

Easy, right? Remember, use your loaf and you'll make a lot of bees!
