What your mother use to say.

[cuddlepop]

It one of those Sundays that you spend reminising over your forgotton childhood and things your mother use to say.
"you born in a park?
"you look like granny Mutch"
Shut your mouth and eat your food"
"tummble your wilkies"
There's loads.....
What do you remember your mammy saying?
I dont use any of these expressions anymore,wonder how many more will be lost.

Where's your gumption?

Faintheart never won fair lady!

At the time, I had neither the 'loaf' nor the 'gumption' to point out that I was not interested in 'fair ladies'.
