Phrases from your childhood
|
It is of constant amusement to my kids, their pals, now young adults, when I inadvertently drop in a colloquial phrase from my upbringing, even more so at work
Terms seemingly unfamiliar but standard fayre back in the Brampton days
So give me your 'endangered' phrases from a time when we were young and the sun shone - I'll kick off
Face like a smacked arse Face like a China man's arse Silly as a sack of arseholes What a LEMON About as genuine as a 5 bob note
Oh and referring to %0 new pence as 10 bob always raises a snigger

We used to do that at my school, so you'd say no slogs to avoid getting biffed. I still say it sometimes but nobody seems to know what I'm talking about. Where did you go to school

Slogs (when one passed wind) had to name 3 pubs and whistle (it was the 70s)!when the other person would hit you repeatedly.
Daffy Ducks, instead of punching one would pinch, more for the ladies
