I've been using 'ma oxters are gowpin' ever since I used antiperspirant instead of my normal deodorant recently.

    ...do you know this thread is quite a challange...it is easy to think of phrases you don't like, it is easy to be annoyed, it's easy to be negative...but a lot harder to think of positive phrases...(sorry for sounding like an old hippy) 8)

    ...let's meet up for a bike ride...
    ...fancy a pint...
    ...let's go out on Saturday...
    ...dad...
    ...all the way...'til the wheels fall off and burn...

    "Do you fancy an early night?" Is quite nice to hear but "why don't you take yourself of on your bike for the day? I'll look after the kids" is also nice. Sadly both are quite rare though :(

    I'm a fan of the 1st and last one (sons are too young yet to buy their own beer sadly), as these are phrases that make you warm inside, as does "yes" from my wifey as it usually means authorisation to issue a purchase order.....

    There is a family saying stretching back to when the kids were little, when they ran in and out of the house, Mrs D would be heard to yell "get out......because you are coming in in a minute", never fails to raise a smile in our household.
