    More than likely he was trying to sell knocked off lamb.

    It's not any euphemism I've heard anyway.

    I'm with the others, it is probably sex/dogging related.

    What in the Winter garden in daylight?

    We said both said "no..."

    He sheepishly retreated...

    Is this a euphemism for something???

    Sounds like a sheep stealer. One of my ancestors was hanged for that in the 13th century.

    I got asked that outside a school gate while I was waiting for PRC-2.1 to complete a game of chess.

    They had a bag full of very dodgy looking buts of pork that they promised had only come out of the freezer that morning.

    Ah, the joys of away chess matches in Croydon.
