Used to be one of my late dads common sayings along with Pat, as in "You've got that off Pat" (You're quite good at that) and "You're a bigger jew than Jed Cohen" (You stingy t**t) although not sure if a lot of places would tolerate the last one nowadays. | ||

Heard it in Bolton. Its one of those sayings along with words like cowd, cocker (or cock for short). | ||

Dan is old fashioned. Member 27, 2028 posts SQ 240, BP 170, DL 255665.0 kgs @ 102kgs UnEq | Heard this saying around here too, more with the older generation though. Unless it's one of those things we all start saying when we turn 60... I wonder if the phrase "taking the Mick" refers to the same guy. | ||
