    From the South-West coast of England it means cooking fish, especially [conger eel], by simmering in [malt vinegar] with herbs and spices. Usually eaten hot, at one time it was stored in pots for later consumption; effectively pickled fish.
    Buried, possibly deriving from “potting”, the process of planting seeds or seedlings in earth or compost, it is the slang term for burying the victim of a hit. The use has been extended to apply to someone who has received a put down so vicious that they are figuratively dead and buried.
    British Army slang, to shoot and kill an [enemy combatant], derives from the old hunters expression one for the pot, referring to a rabbit, pigeon shot and killed.
    To be fired from your job, either because you are a total [WOFS] or some other reason.
    To be really drunk, pissed or rat arsed; derives from pot, the Australian slang for a beer glass.
    To get high smoking grass, derives from pot one of the alternative names for marijuana.
