  (Duch speaking) Gorby

  Bible is written in double dutch

  Dont take offence Gorby , (or my dutch friends on here if I have any after this ) It`s an Australian expression for talking utter rubbish or gibberish

  I`m not sure where or when this expression originated from ,I`ll have to google it.
