Cockney rhyming slang-Rosie Lee
Translation-Tea
Example-“Ooh, I do fancy a lovely cup of Rosie Lee.”
Lucky for you guys, it’s a short post today. Suffering the side effects of the Intravenous Iron Infusion (ooh, an alliteration) I had on Wednesday.

Hope you get chance to take it easy for a bit. Rosie Lee as a phrase could work very hard – That cup of Rosie Lee has gone straight through me. I need a Rosie Lee now.

If there is a woman living in London with the name Rosie Lee, she must curse her parents daily.
Who knew that being hooked up to an IV drip for hours and being pumped full of iron, would give me the best sleep in years! Pity about the rest of the side effects.
Right, I’m off to Whitechapel hospital

When the consultant said I had to have an infusion, I was hoping more for a strawberry and blackcurrant tea infusion Mr Z, but it wasn’t to be. And my good friend did indeed bring along a bottle of Iron Bru. But then she’s clinically insane…
Ah, the invention of the Rosie Lee Bags…er…that doesn’t work quite as well…
And thanks Mr Z, feeling much better this evening.

Lily, hope you’re feeling better after that IV Iron Infusion!! Thinking of you.
Rosie Lee for tea, so interesting and I wonder if that was named after someone. As I’m reading this, I’m having a cup of green Rosie Lee with mango today. Like your images and LOL about saucy, clever!

Feeling better all the time Madilyn. Once it swirls around my system and does it’s job, I shall be seen cartwheeling down the streets of London.
Ooh, Rosie Lee with mango. I like a nice Camomile and Honey Rosie. Very healthy, apart from the big slab of chocolate cake adorning the side of the saucer.
Spawn was NOT amused by the ‘saucy’ gag and so I thank thee.:)

Oh you tease me with your cup of Rosie, while my fridge is devoid of the goodness that is milk. Think of me whilst I imbibe some ginger tea instead. 😦
Feeling good and migraine free, so thank you. 🙂
