Blackbriar 8,568 Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 Following on from the "annoying phrases" thread, anyone got any silly or amusing sayings/phrases they've heard ? If I ever asked my grandad where he was going, he always used to say "There and back, see how far it is." Or if you asked him how far somewhere was, he'd say "Its only 5 minutes walk, if you run!" Any more..........? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Blackbriar 8,568 Posted June 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 Another one from my grandad, "You're like a man made of smoke." Think it meant you were doing something too slow or not very well, but I'm not really sure ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
