Nod is British slang for go−ahead, approval.
a guinea. A slang word used in Britain and chiefly London from around 1750-1850. Ned was seemingly not pluralised when referring to a number of guineas, eg., 'It'll cost you ten ned..' A half-ned was half a guinea. The slang ned appears in at least one of Bruce Alexander's Blind Justice series of books (thanks P Bostock for raising this) set in London's Covent Garden area and a period of George III's reign from around 1760 onwards. It is conceivable that the use also later transferred for a while to a soverign and a pound, being similar currency units, although I'm not aware of specific evidence of this. The ned slang word certainly transferred to America, around 1850, and apparently was used up to the 1920s. In the US a ned was a ten dollar gold coin, and a half-ned was a five dollar coin. Precise origin of the word ned is uncertain although it is connected indirectly (by Chambers and Cassells for example) with a straightforward rhyming slang for the word head (conventional ockney rhyming slang is slightly more complex than this), which seems plausible given that the monarch's head appeared on guinea coins. Ned was traditionally used as a generic name for a man around these times, as evidenced by its meaning extending to a thuggish man or youth, or a petty criminal (US), and also a reference (mainly in the US) to the devil, (old Ned, raising merry Ned, etc). These, and the rhyming head connection, are not factual origins of how ned became a slang money term; they are merely suggestions of possible usage origin and/or reinforcement.

Red ned is Australian slang for any cheap red wine.
Acronym for North End Gipsy. Used to describe the children who lived in the council estate on the north end of town . They stank and often wore the same parka coat for their entire school life. There was one notorious family of Negs whos name was luckily 'Negus' which starts with Neg. Other children could identify the chair used by Negs (when entering a class-room the Neg had vacated) because it stank of poor people. These chairs were either isolated or sat upon by an unfortunate child who would be sniggered at through out the lesson and only later told it was because they had the NEG Chair. Many towns have a North End Gip estate because it is predominantly down wind. (ed: please remember ODPS does not necessarily agree with the sentiments presented in certain definitions. This entry demonstrates how cruel kids can be!)
