a good deal of our slang is cockney in origin, but with a fair smattering of irish, scottish etc .. is it possible some celts use it this way?
I must conclude my use of “nob” for peers or privileged english blokes is an aussie-only use of this word, its never (or almost never) used for cock here .. I asked around a bit and got agreement .. Im sure that you are right that this is never used that way up there, youre clearly too literate to be unaware of it .. so it must be a local slang we “know” is an english use of the word .. apparently quite inaccurately
