“A load of old cobblers” có cobblers là chuyện tầm phào -> cụm từ này nghĩa là toàn chuyện tầm phào, nhảm nhí.

Ví dụ
Autumn by Karl Ove Knausgaard review – cliche, sentimentalism (tính đa cảm) and repetition (sự lặp lại). The celebrated author has written an address to his unborn child about the unnoticed (không được chú ý) strangeness of the world. It’s a load of cobblers.

The bringing back something unexpected (không mong đợi) from space genre began probably with The Quatermass Experiment in the 50s. This Russian effort has an intriguing (hấp dẫn) period setting and, within its limited ambitions, is well executed. The problem is that what it has brought back is a load of old cobblers.

Kernel of truth or load of old cobblers? All these make sense. Muscles (cơ bắp) stressed in a race or hard training session need rest to repair. The best rest is lying down, preferably asleep. On stage races, riders tried to take a short nap in the interval (khoảng thời gian) between getting to their hotel rooms and dinner; they still do. When you sleep, your body switches into full repair mode.
