Things your Dad used to say
Or anyone else come to that - or even things they still do!
If I asked my Dad for money he would say it would be like 'Giving a domkey strawberries' Never heard anyone else say that.
My favourite saying of my wife's is "Your enough to give my **** (backside) an 'edache"
Here's a link full of Wrexham area sayings ...

if you don't stop crying i'll give you something to cry about. What "Sweets" no a good old smack. I never did understand the logic behind that one because the smack always made you cry harder and louder.:mad_xmas:

Re: Things your Dad used to say
My dad was a real good grafter,down the pit all day,in the pub all night,or maybe the other way round.
He came in one night,just before christmas,and I said to him,
"Dad,you needn't moan now about spending all your hard earned money on me a bike."I JUST FOUND ONE ALL WRAPPED UP BEHIND THE SHED"
My sister was at that age,she said to him,"I want something for Christmas with loads of diamonds,SANTA BROUGHT HER A PACK OF CARDS....
Still on' line',"What did your dad say??????:laugh_xmas:
Re: Things your Dad used to say
I was attached to the UDR for two years - they had some GREAT sayings!
E.g. - propping the bar up in the mess - alone - in walks a guy ... "Ah - John - It's yourself is it?"
