¹ Oh dear! I suppose having mentioned it I have to explain it.
Sorry, but:

There was a young lady from Tottenham.
Whose manners she'd lost or forgotten 'em.
While at tea at the vicar's
She tore off her knickers
Because, she said, she felt hot in 'em.

Compare and contrast:

Ja nus hons pris ne dira sa raison
Adroitement, se dolantement non;
Mais par effort puet il faire chançon.
Mout ai amis, mais povre sont li don;
Honte i avront se por ma reançon

¹ If you are reading this rather than hearing it, remember that it is a spoken piece and in my idiolect the words 'stork' and 'stalk' are indistinguishable.
Oh yes! and *storking, defined as ‘following in the manner of a demented stork (usually under the influence of Konrad Lorenz )’ isn’t in the OED, though storkling; ‘a young stork’ and storkish: ‘of, pertaining to, or resembling a stork’ are.

² Actually, I suppose, since I don’t own a bust of Pallas, once it was in the room there was nowhere else that the poor thing could go.

² Not of course to be confused with WS’s H,PoD III ii l.251-5. for other poetic responses to this unmentionable Act, see here

Sleekit, sleek.

Bickerin' brattle, flittering flight.

Laith, loth.

Pattle, ploughstaff.

¹ The head office at the time was Mullard House (with its main entrance in Torrington Place) which building is now part of University College London and home to UCL's Department of Electronics & Electrical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering

² GPO: In Britain at that time the Post Office (the General Post Office) ran the phones. Indeed a few streets over from us the Post Office Tower was a major communications hub (not to mention being the tallest building in London, famously referred to as the Post Master general’s latest erection. I’m not sure why*)

³ In a name-droppy aside, the humour of this for me being intensified by my having dated one of the numerous Heal offspring for a time.

⁴ To eff and blind, to use strong expletives, to swear continuously
1943 M. HARRISON Reported Safe Arrival 31 They'd eff and blind till yer ear-'oles started ter frizzle.
1963 P. WEST Mod. Novel II. i. 142 On it goes, the livid effing-and-blinding.
Eff, variant of EF, name of the letter F, euphemistically representing FUCK v. 2, 3.]
(Used as an expletive on its own account, as a milder alternative to the full form of the word fuck, or else as a euphemistic report of an actual use of the full word.)
1950 HEMINGWAY Across River & into Trees ix. 78 ‘Eff Florence,’ the Colonel said.
Blind, used in vulgar imprecations, as blind me! Cf. BLIMEY int.
1890 FARMER Slang I. 230/1 Blimey, a corruption of ‘blind me!’; an expression little enough understood by those who constantly have it in their mouths. 1923 E. O'NEILL Hairy Ape v. 47 There's a 'ole mob of 'em like 'er, Gawd blind 'em!
Blimey
1922 JOYCE Ulysses 305 God blimey if she aint a clinker... Blimey it makes me kind of bleeding cry.
---culled from the OED

⁵  I know that the OED says this is an erroneous form of 'Antipodal'---but I say sod them, and sod the alternative form of 'Antipodean'---which anyway ought to be 'Antipodian' ([Antipodean irreg. f. ANTIPODE-S + -AN; perh. after European, but not analogous, a better form being the obs. ANTIPODIAN.]) so there!!

*  Though this might help explain it... and then again, when you start looking around London at, say, the so-called Gherkin you begin to suspect that there is a certain amount of skyscraper envy going on here

¹ Begathon is not yet in the OED but 'beg' is, as is '-athon'---a combining form, barbarously extracted f. MAR)ATHON, used occas. in the U.S. (talkathon, walkathon), rarely in Britain, to form words denoting something carried on for an abnormal length of time. (Amer. Speech (1934) IX. 76, 317/2.)

² two of them are here and here. As an example one of thse gave me a grade level of 12.7 (not too far from MS Word's) but the other gave me a whopping 15.98! One of them also suggested I had 82 ‘complex’ words, but since their idea of ‘complex words’ included such to them obscure monstrosities as ‘century’, ‘demonstrated’ and the truly terrifying word ‘historians’ I felt that their criteria were perhaps a bit lax.

³ Perhaps I’m thinking of the Hanna-Barbera Studio’s Yogi Bear animations here...

⁴ Nope my mind’s obviously still stuck in that exciting Playboy gutter.

⁵ Shakespeare's vocabulary is actually hard to assess. The figure of 29,066 different words which is often bandied about with gay abandon is actually the number of different spellings (not to mention grammatical forms etc.)---and this for a guy who didn't even bother to be consistent when it came to the spelling of his own name! See here for a discussion.

Sort of.

Ish.
