@room101 so historically rhyming slag used a word that is the first part of a two word rhyme.
Bubble needs bath to rhyme with laugh but you only say bubble.
Pony and trap means crap you just say pony
Apples and pears means stairs you say apples.
Whistle and flute means suit.
I see a guy in a new suit I say "Nice whistle"
Or I might say "That whistle is pony mate"

@SW-User Yes, I know that most of the traditional Cockney rhyming slang is in two words.

“Oi Nick, are you out or are you out, out?”
“I’m out, out”, says Nick.
“Well let’s be ‘avin ya! The old trouble and strife is watching the telly so I’m off dahn the frog and toad to the rub-a-dub for a cheeky pint.”

Visited lots especially now I live in Kent. Cockney rhyming slang traditionally comes from the East End of London but most people understand it though it changes.

"Grew up" there - for all of three years. Never actually heard Cockney rhyming slang. Too much rushing about but many nice places.
