We were looking at buying a house, many years ago, and she wasn't sure if the carpet in the house would go with our new sofa. The carpet went right into an understairs cupboard and there was some spare available.......... so she asked if we could "Chuck a c*nt off the carpet to compare it with the sofa........."
She, of course, meant to say "Cut a chunk off the carpet..........." 
Needless to say, we didn't buy the house!  | |
