Codswallop, depends who you ask, some say it was a from soft drink
manufacturer called Codd, others that it's just what the fish drink. In
either case, the "wallop", or beer, is too weak to be worthwhile.

I heard that this meant: to be walloped longside the left ear with a
frozen cod! - this from a native of our newest and furthest east
province, the left ear because he was right handed.
