I physically cannot do up buttons on my trousers now and have to rely on just the belt to hold them up. :-( Starting to have problems with the zips too. Phil, a whistle is another name for a mighty wang Whistle is cockney rhyming slang for a suit - whistle and flute.

I have googled Whistle Slang and come up with no references to penises, mighty or otherwise, in the first five pages of results that I looked at!
Suits however feature many times!

I have never heard of whistles being a word for suits. I am very familiar with the Glasgow vernacular of whistle for wang.

I've no idea what any of you are talking about. 'Whistle' means neither suit nor purple headed love weapon.
You're all mad.

Liz knew what I was looking for, why, and says Whistle is slang for suit.

I'd have thought bagpipes would be more appropriate than whistle in Scotland.

Most decent bagpipe players are in pipe bands. Not on the street playing badly.

Indeed, having spoken to folk over the years who play on the streets and in pipe bands. Those playing on the streets do it for cash from tourists: in the summer they can easily rake in £500-600 a week!
