I think you should remember that "gob" means something way different over here in the UK. It's a mild insult.

I'm assuming you intended it to mean "good old boy" or Colonel Tom as we call him.

Sorry, forgot, lured in by the Grand Old Bastard club. Not that he's such except in British terms. Cor blimey one has to think well of someone who gets promoted to Colonel on his 100th birthday just after making 30 million.

As in (going purely on memory here):

"Shut your festering gob, you tit. You toffee-nosed, malodorous pervert." (or something like that)

From the Monty Python TV show scripts (argument sketch).
"Shut your festering gob, you tit! Your type makes me puke! You vacuous toffee-nosed malodorous pervert!!!"

I have the full set on DVD (all shows, all movies). I have both books of scripts (one in hardback (that I've had for 40+ years), one in paperback (to replace the missing second volume my twin brother has had for 40+ years)).
