Ashley 288 Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 not a parents saying, but always recall hearing my 2 lads (now 41 and 37) talking, not sure of ages then but youngest pally with lad similar age few doors away called Daniel, one day he said he was going to see if "Aniel" (pronounced in his aged 4? voice "annual") was playing, to which his elder brother corrected him saying if that was his name he'd only come out at Christmas!

katyjay 5,091 Posted November 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 One of my next door neighbour's cats was looking through our patio door today, scowling at my 2 kitties. I said to my hubby, he looks like a duck looking at thunder. My mum used to say that, about anyone with a sour face. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dgbrit 258 Posted November 19, 2011 Report Share Posted November 19, 2011 When I started out my apprentiship one of my duties was "Tea boy" . One of the old hands would always say "Did you wash these cups out first?" To which the reply was always "Yes, why?" . "Cause I can still see the F*****g stains in the bottom!!" inferring that the tea was too weak.! When i took over the job as tea boy i gave everyones mug a good going over with pumice they all came up like new ,Boy did i get into trouble that was the only thing that gave the tea any flavour.

twroberts27 0 Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 When asked what was for dinner mum would reply s**t with sugar on!! And something which was said which i think is a classic was "bloody hell the things you see when you don't have a gun!!" If asked "What's for dinner?" My mum would say "Windmill pie, if it gers round yer lucky." Quote Link to post Share on other sites
katyjay 5,091 Posted February 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 Good one, not heard that one before. Thought of a couple, not sure if they've appeared before and too many to go through to check. Ram it in, Gungadin, when trying to fit something into a tight space. Mind your own knitting, if you were being nosy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
twroberts27 0 Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 Couldn't spot this on my scan through the forum - as incomers to Nottingum we were taken with the expression: "You'll (or Thou'll) get wrong not yer!" - meaning "Oh dear, you will get into trouble!"

jackson 301 Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 Hi twroberts27, welcome in. I Love your: "bloody hell the things you see . . . ." I'll have to nick that saying. I read that your dad was a delivery man for Co-op bread. My mum had the Co-op for years, for delivery of both milk and bread. I can still smell the bread that came out of the waxed wrapper; I wrote to Katyjay about it not so long back. My mum used to carefully fold the wrapper up and put it to the back of the pantry for use later on for packing up sandwiches. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beefsteak 305 Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 Another one for the nosy parkers was "Mind your Beeswax" I actually know a woman local to here who uses that one !! (Mind you they say Meduck round here too !!) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
carltongal 101 Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 When i used to ask what was for dinner my Mum used to say " a walk found the table and a bite out the door knob" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gibbo 04 188 Posted February 11, 2012 Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 Sorry if these have posted before. My Dad used to mek me laugh with these sayings: Dad: would yer? Me: would I what? Dad: sh*t and fall back in it! You've got a face like a " bosted boot! " meaning I was a miserable little so and so.... When he was emptying the ashes, I can remember him saying : " Bleddy 'ell, I've gone and bont me sen! " Quote Link to post Share on other sites
