I also say:

'good egg'

and use the expression:

'I love you more than salt' (which is from an old fable/folk tale)

this thread is my cuppa tea, Ms. M
 
"All Talk, No Trousers" remains a favourite, always accompanied by an eyeroll.

"Hello Pot, this is Kettle calling"

"Pardon my French" - when caught cursing, particularly in front of children.

"The Bee's Knees AND the Cat's Pajamas" - really top of the top, the best thing ever

"Full of Beans" - to mean full of energy or a nice way to say 'your child is manic and out of control'

"It's all gone pear shaped" - all wrong, not as expected, disappointing

"Ass over Tea-kettle" - to describe a particularly fantastic fall


Whinge - to whine
Suss/Sussed - to figure out, understand
Strop/Stroppy - to throw a fit or tantrum, to sulk
Twee - to be dainty, quaint
Gallivanting - out on the town, running around

My Aunts Ruby and Lois used to say "Law, law!" because it was as close as they could get without taking the Lord's name in vain.....

~Lawsy mercy!
~Land sakes alive!

From my Grandmother born in the 1880's in Italy-

"sacremente la bastia!"

"inchastra!"

"miseria"

My Mom (1917-1998)-

"Jesus, Mary & Joseph!"

"tall drink of water"

"everyone's shit stinks"

"royal pain in the ass"

... last but not least... "stupid is what stupid does"- When I saw "Forest Gump", I couldn't believe someone else's mother said that!

Yeah- not exactly from a refined background...
