Subject: toad licking\ toad-in-the-hole
Добрый день! Кто-нибудь встречался с такими феноменами. Toad licking (из нарком жаргона) и toad-in-the-hole вид настольной игры в англ пабах. Как их лучше перевести.
toad licking
Toad licking" or "toad smoking" are the terms that newspaper reporters attached to the ingestion of Bufo venom by users of illicit drugs. This was (and is) done with the intent purpose of getting stoned or high, or going into a trance in a shamanic manner. (It is important to note that bufotenine-a minor constituent of all Bufo toad venoms-is not hallucinogenic.)
toad-in-the-hole
is a pub game, involving throwing brass discs at a hole in a box. A variation of this game has been played in pubs in East Sussex, UK, the 'hole' being in the centre of a large wooden seat set against the wall, the back of the seat being a surface to rebound your shot off. Toad in the hole is a more refined version of the coin-throwing game Pitch penny.
Спасибо.
