Im absolutely baffled, I had taken part in an advert to promote the *Big One 2" Rugby league match between Wigan v Warrington game last week. We were in line waiting for instructions and everyone was having a laugh, then one guy told this lad when its his shot to say "Two tickets please cockle" when he goes up to the window


Its been bothering me for ages and can't find what it means anywhere

In Ireland frivolities and jollies are referred to as 'craic' (crack). My elderly aunt went to the States a few years back and got odd looks when she kept asking the cabin crew where she could get a good bit of craic when she got off the plane
I LOVE that expression! I am not Irish at all but have taken it for my own. Sorry Irish Fms but you have some great sayings.

Really? Ah well it is a celtic sounding word so that makes sense I suppose.
