Pure Mental = Very Good
Ahm gonna chib ya = I'm going to stab you with my penknife my good man
Loon = Boy
Quine = Girl
Fannybaws = An insult, you have both male and female genitals
Arse Bandit = Homosexual
A Dinnieken = I don't know
Pish = Not Good
Radge = Very angry
Pan = Smash e.g "Im gonna pan yer face in"


Well that's just a small sample. Lets hear some from your area  ;)

Barney = Barney Rubble = Trouble.

That's an example of some somewhat typical Australian slang.

And there is lots of it (my step dad is an Aussie).

Some Jersey slang...
Fuckin' A - I'm really not sure what it means, but I say it all the time.  I usually say it if something is kinda shocking or surprising.
sub - apparantely nobody else calls submarine sandwiches subs but people from Jersey?

I thought I had more, I'll try to think of some other ones.

i'm pretty sure both of those are universal.

My favourite bit of slang is the ediburgh word "barry"; meaning very good.

eg. "Hows yer new flat?

to which you reply "Aye, it's pure* barry, ken" (yeah, it's very good, y'know.)

*Add depending on schemieness.
