Talking to my DGD this afternoon I mentioned that "there was just enough blue in the sky to patch a sailors trousers". She looked at me as though I was completely mad and I had to explain the expression. This set me thinking that a lot of these sayings are going out of fashion and may be lost forever within our lifetime. What other sayings and phrases do you use, or remember your parents using?
Is it me or am I getting mixed messages
How do you acknowledge Easter.
