I thought it was 'couldn't stop a pig in a passage' ( bandy legs) although in the UK nobody has bandy legs now.Inspector Montalbano does though.
No, I don't use odd phrases and think they will die out with our generation as the younger ones don't use them or know what they mean.I don't think that 'dragged through a hedge backwards' is an odd saying but a sensible one!
