"Don't care was made to care".....How? Never heard the gory details.

Don’t care didn’t care,
Don’t care was wild:
Don’t care stole plum and pear
Like any beggar’s child.

Don’t care was made to care,
Don’t care was hung:
Don’t care was put in a pot
And boiled till he was done.

Hello

The old classics that my Nan still uses:

'They'll get nowhere quicker' - as a car speeds past about 100mph and you are doing around 20mph

'You'll have someone's eye out' regularly used - applies to everything!!

'Took off down the road' - no idea

My little boys favourite = 'i'm off to catch a bus'

A few years ago a friend of mines father died really sudenly.
When she told me I said " OMG you are joking "
"Well no !" was the reply.
Still cringe when I think about it !

Two strangers on a train start talking, then:
Woman: So where are you from?
Man: Chester.
Woman: Me too! It's a small world, isn't it?

The train was going to Chester.

I do get that one - it's one of my dad's. In other words - you're not as daft as you look.
Another from my dad: 'If wit was sh**, you'd be constipated'

That happened to my on the day my dad died. I went round to the pub and some people had heard but when I told one of my friends his reply was "You're Joking".

Don't know how I came up with it but my reply was "If I was joking I would have said knock knock and you'd say who's there... Now get me a pint I need it"

My favourite is the classic Geordie-ism - I've never done a thing since last time I did it - as in "I've never been to St James Park since we lost against Arsenal"

I'm married to a geordie, and get this from his family all the time.

I also like "if you fall out of that tree and break your leg, don't come running to me!"

Wishbone

I always enjoy telling my kids to eat their brocolli (or carrots, sprouts, etc) because... "It'll put hairs on your chest".
They never seem too impressed, but maybe that's because they're both girls!
