Just looked this up Garinda (never gonna' get me ironing done at this rate!).
Seems should really be 'Not on your Nellie Duff' rhyming slang to 'not on your puff' (not personal ... tee hee), meaning 'not on your life' Still no explanation though to the personage of Nellie Duff, just made up I guess as most rhyming slang.
