Ding ding ding!

Got it in one. That's exactly what it means.

"Can the chav" would have also been acceptable, which means the same thing as "shop the yob".

Hell, I'm of predominantly English and Irish descent, grew up with relatives from over there, have been exposed to that culture all my life, and I STILL don't know what the Hell they're talking about half the time.

Yardies, yobbos, and chavs, indeed.

My wife caught me shopping the yob once. It was pretty embarassing.
