Dodgy as a bottle of chips.
Never drink in a pub with a flat roof.
If ifs and ands were pots and pans there'd be no need for tinkers.
I try to use it as often as possible.....

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think I am

that's like horse shit from China; far fetched

Not that funny but I seem to say it a lot 😉
He's so tight he only cries out of one eye.
He's got a heid like a 10 bob bit.
You only get what you pay for.
I have loads, couldn't pick a favourite
"There's no I in team but there is a U in cYOUnt"
"Never get in an argument with a moron, they'll only drag you down to their level and beat you with experience"
"Assume, makes an ASS of U and ME"

Like she had a stroke and reacted by dying? That's just disrespectful. Expected better of you, Tucker
“It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters.”
Couldn't agree more - we recognise her for the horrendous ghoul that she was and celebrate her death accordingly!
"Ahh it'll be reet"
You cannot polish a turd.

But you can roll it in glitter
S+!t on a stick
"Assume, makes an ASS of U and ME"
I hate that expression above all other expressions. Gah.
I prefer 'assumptions make an ass out of you and umptions' personally.
I rather like this little pithy bon mot for when something is not quite right....
If that's true, my cock's a kipper.
Not a saying but a definition I enjoy nonetheless:
A gentleman is a man who knows how to play the banjo but doesn't.
Won't work with bike stuff but,
"Buy cheap, buy twice"
Stop acting the goat.
Next year we'll be millionaires 😉
this is a genuine old sicilian saying that my FiL uses 'only donkeys have places'
and one of mine but I can't remember where I heard it 'so tight he could peel an orange in his pocket'
She's got the personality of a rattlesnake,without the attractive markings.
When aligning things to microns- "Nowt what a blind man on a galloping horse wouldn't see"
Pain is only temporary, glory lasts for several seconds.
(she's got) "a face like a slapped arse" . Or when referring to elements of boat construction, such as forming a radius/beading on the lower edge of a thwart rising "to cheer it up a bit". And harking back to my black country roots - "if it ay bost, dow fix it".
Edit - oh, and on seeing someone with buck teeth "well (s)he could eat an apple through a tennis racket.."
And a well-endowed lass - "it's like a dead-heat in a zeppellin race".
The grave yard is full of heroes.
Like she had a stroke and reacted by dying? That's just disrespectful. Expected better of you, Tucker
Pretty good! 😆
I refuse to be drawn into a battle of wits with you; I was brought up never to attack a man who was incapable of defending himself.
for those with windswept and interesting locks
"looks like they brushed their hair with a toffee apple!"

Your favourite 'saying'.

I'll go to the foot of our stairs.

She's got a face like a bag of smashed crabs.
She's got a face like a smacked arse
She's got a face like a bulldog blowing up a football
Put your foot down with a heavy hand
a couple of mine
She's got a face like a bulldog licking p1ss off a nettle
or
She's got a face like a bulldog chewing a wasp
oh and I forgot one I'm constantly repeating at work
'this lot couldn't run a bath'
Don't do today what you can put off till tomorrow
I try and use "she's got a face like fire damaged Lego" as often as possible...
Face like a blind cobbler's thumb.
Some people are walking a fine line between funny sayings and bulls**t bingo gold here...
Mines the one about arguing with morons
That and 'ringfence the unicorn', obviously
I was born at night but not last night.
As much use as a hair net in a thunder storm.
If C***s could fly you'd be a squadron leader.
I'm so hungry I'd eat the beard of Moses.
She looked like a bulldog licking pissy nettles.
As much use as fanny fart.

Stop digging when you're in a hole.
You can out lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig.
Seems to sum up a whole range of work and life issues!
I like a few actually -
"Colder than a witches tit" - when refering to cold stuff.
"I've seen more meat on a butchers pencil" - when refering to skinny folk.
"life is not a rehearsal"
"The early bird catches the worm, but the second mouse to the trap gets the cheese"
"one life, live it"
"We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the Stars" - Oscar Wilde
"There is always hope"
Originally from Lord of the rings, but also made famous by Banksy.
"At night all cats are grey"
"Don't trust anything that bleeds for a week and doesn't die"
"Is that acausal syncronicity or coincidence?"
Nipples like chapel hat pegs
Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines.
'theres no I in team'
'no, but there is a me'
What's the beef, chief?
Also, although I have tried to stop it:
You can't fight city hall.
Face like a haunted cave is ace, nicking that. 🙂
I quite like 'delusions of adequacy'.
Is that supposed to happen?

You might as well have a pi55 in your best hat 😀
And new addition
as blind as a welders dog
enjoyed "face like a haunted cave"
reminded me of a mate in Glasgow telling me about a girl he was seeing with dodgy teeth...
She had a mouth like a blown fuse box....
Shaking like a shitting dog.
Upon leaving the bathroom...I should give it a minute if i were you.
