Funny Sayings!

Featured Replies

Listen to my father speaking with his Derbyshire accent, 98% is funny! Doesn't matter if I said it and wasn't funny, if he did IT WOULD.

Problem is it irritates me to be perfectly honest.

I wonder if @GrannyPie and @super_ram can remember this little ditty from there younger days.

Imagine as a 6/7 year old you want to insult another kid, for the purposes of this we'll say his name is Billy Jones, this is what we used to sing:

Billy Jones sells fish

Three ha'pence a dish

Don't buy it, don't buy it

It stinks when you fry it!

Suzie's your Aunt.

I know this as 'Bob's your uncle and Fanny's your aunt'

I wonder if they're related to Bill and his mother.

My mate Josh who is born and bread in Weymouth tagged along with us to Walsall the other week, and thought he was in another world when an old chap behind us shouted "gerit on't deck ", had to translate for him!

He thought I was bad enough when he first heard me shout "ger on we it"!

  'He's gone to Shottle on a bottle'-This is what I was told when I asked family members where someone was.It was followed by 'and he's coming back on t' cork'


Shottle is a smal village near Belper in Derbyshire

Pay attention @PTID1862 :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

In Germany there's a brand of crisps called Funny Frisch. Unfortunately, they prounounce "funny" as "fanny".


 


Another old phrase you don't hear any more - "terrific win for Notts County!"
