Spoonerisms

Someone on here recently mentioned the West Bank having one of their favourite spoonerisms. After thinking "I wonder if the Staza Grip leads to the Best Wank" it occurred to me, for the umpteenth time, that I am a bit of a compulsive spooneriser. It amuses me sometimes but is mostly tedious. Does anyone else experience this?
Some of the ones I've come up with, that I can remember, chosen for how they sound, so the spelling could be off:

Les Claypool (phenomenal bassist out of Primus) - Les Playcool
Buddy Rich - Ruddy Bitch
Joe Longthorn - Joe Thonglawn

A couple whose names sound pretty much the same spoonerised:

Chuck Berry - Buck Cherry
Les Dawson - Des Lawson

And a couple of whores:

Utter Shit - Shutter It
Mister Six - Sister Mix
ratscocksandbowlerhats - catsrocksandhowlerbats (works best written down)

If this thread doesn't drop like a stone I'll add some more as I remember them.
God I'm bored.

Last night I drunkedly called an England striker "Rayne Wooney".

I used to get immense fun from Jill Dando -> Jan Dildo. But then she got shot in the head, and it kinda lost its topicality.

Someone on here ages ago mentioned the Ted Rogers one, which still makes me chuckle from time to time.

...Oh fucking Partridge gitflaps.

Mind you, Busty Din isn't all that bad. Could be a euphemism for Dolly Parton.

Kent countryside - as spoonerised by Sir Tonight with Trevor McDonald, I think

Action film star - Snesley Wipes

And my favourite is some American industrialist who is apparently called 'Buckingham Falls'

My dad was putting the lottery on and couldn't be bothered to pick his numbers so he asked for a ducky lip

An alternate name that was considered for this character was Mary Hinge.

There's a footballer, for Crewe Alexandra, named Kenny Lunt. If his nickname isn't Lenny, then there's something wrong.

Excellent thread.

Down the pub once, my mate spoonered the phrase Stunt Cops.

Heh! Heh! Some of those are great.

There's this lot, of course:



No, not Fix Buzz... Cuh!

A few weeks ago when I had a bit of a joint I commented on my mates plot pants.

Bought a ropey old t-shirt in Camden a few years back with Steve mcQueen from the Great Escape on it, with the phrase Cunning Stunts underneath.  That always worked after a few beers in the pub!
