Cockney Rhyming Slang replaces one word with a pair of words that rhyme with it. (Please post your result)

Give it a go! (Please post your result)

I got 8 right by merely guessing. :lol:
 
I got 7 right with the guessing strategy, but then I started to get them all right until the last one. xD

Some of them I knew because I've either heard it from somewhere or me and my boyfriend talked about it. My boyfriend and I talked about a lot of Cockney Rhyming Slang phrases. I even know that a 'septic tank' means 'yank' which is what the English consider Americans. But yeah, with a bit of thinking, the ones I didn't know, I was able to work out. :)

I stumbled on number 5. Like beowulf i've never heard of bubble bath = laugh. I have heard several people use 'You're having a Giraffe' though so I got confused.
