Hi there , can I add to the sayings ?
My Dad when going out for a pint would say he "was going to see a man about a dog"
Next morning I would search in vain for the dog, never did find one though!.

My Sis and I didn't realise all the sayings our Mum had until she passed.....she was full of wise words, and two of her sayings were....

Its the time spent with your children that matter Sally, not the money spent on them....

Don't say anything that you are not prepared to say to people's faces.....

......thanks, Mum......I learned my lessons well from you.....
