I will explain.......A two bob millionare is (usually) a couple who sell their two up two down ex council house or similar, in (for example)Guildford or Skipton for a ludicrously inflated price.They then invest half of the money in some godforsaken ex pat urbanisation with a shared pool and onsite 'club' and never learn the local lingo.The surplus money keeps them in beer,fags and suncream for 20 years until they pick up some age related condition(new hip,knee etc).At which point they expect to shoot back to the UK and have treatment done on the nhs.
Well im sorry,if you emigrate to Australia,Canada etc you take up citizenship and become Australian or Canadian,the same should apply to the plebs who relocate to Spain.


You mean a Two bit Millionaire then.

If Finchy were a cockney it would make sense... "two bob" being the shortened version of "two bob bit", the rhyming slang adjective meaning "shit".

But Finchy isn't a cockney, and in fact loathes cockneys, and would never use cockney rhyming slang, so therefore he is just being a spunk trumpet.
