Increasingly common on business bullshit bingo cards the English-speaking world over, 'close of play' is the latest way to say '5.30', presumably employed by people a) to make the working day seem more fun, by describing it as 'play' b) because they are cunts.
Presumably, like the equally execrable 'touch base', the expression originated in a shit American sport.
So where are we gonna be by close of play?
We're not playing. I'm working. You're talking like a prick.
Ok, I need to touch base with the client before close of play.
Oh right.

The situation, when you almost got in the any trouble, but the last moment you didn't. You got lucky.
Example:
" Phew, I almost fall in the water. That was a close shave!"

When you see a group of girls and you approach to spit game, but they ignore you or turn hostile and don't allow you to approach them.
Me to friends: Look at that group of chicks over at the bar. Let's go spit some game.
Friends to me: I wouldn't bother. They'll probably close ranks as soon as they see you walking toward them.
