I've always used the term "gelted" for someone who's got a lot of money "that guy is gelted"
Oh and I use "lagging it down" if it's raining.
People seem to know what I'm on about though, but I never hear anyone else say either of them.

I still use the term "Ten bob bit" when referring to a 50p piece.

If i am not mistaken the term is taken from military times when people used a snap box for food?

Belting
As in "that was Belting film"
