    Crazy English Sayings

    Hello friends
    During some conversations I see my Filipino wife giving me strange looks, then asking "what is Spik and span?" hehe So I thought it would be fun for the British born amongst us to post the crazy sayings and our dear Filipino partners post the translation for us - after all it is Christmas and some jolly fun is needed, so here is my list (sure more will follow when I think of them!)

    Clever Clogs
    Pigs will fly
    Touch Wood
    Half a tick
    Wouldn't touch it with a barge pole
    Wrong end of the stick
    Part and parcel
    Thick as thieves
    Catch 22
    Murphys law
    A right sew and sew
    Spik and span

    Enjoy and Happy Christmas to all
    Baz (Barrie) and Jaz (Jazzle)
