John White Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 Dear AllIn the coming weeks, from time to time, I`m gonna ask for your help with programme ideas as they pop up in my mind.What bizarre things did your Mam used to say, or warn you about, when you were young, that stuck in your mind?Here`s my starter. But for obvious reasons I haven`t made my mind up if I will use it. Especially on a tea time programme:"Dont sit on that cold step... You`ll get piles"!! As I said please try & keep them broadcastable!What am I letting loose! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Bull Bedlington Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 (edited) When I had a cold I was told 'to cough it up' as it may have been a gold watch!My dad used to say when I looked sad that I looked like 'I'd lost a tanner and found thruppence' (sometimes it was a shilling and and a tanner) Edited February 2, 2012 by Black Bull Bedlington Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
