silly phrases

I was just thinking about an old friends Mum how passed away a long time ago but I will always remember her for some of the phrases she used to come out with, here are just a few:

ya daft brush
Ya big girls blouse
belt up will tha!
wet be'indt 'ears (wet behind the ears)
daft apeth

Growing up I remember Yorkshire phrases such as:

Stop faffing abart
Shut ya cake 'oil
is a reyt clart eead him tha' nos
put wood int' oil
tha meks a better door than a winder
wa ta born in a field
is a reyt wassak
Moff t'bog
am gonna bray thee

to name a few, a could gu'on forever it's fun remembering 'em.

Do you have silly phrases where you are from? If so I'd love t' ear 'em

PS: If you want me to translate any of them I will.

Re: silly phrases

My dear old grandad always used to tell me and my brother off if we were playing up when he was trying to check his football coupons on a Saturday night.

He used to glare at us and say - " Will you two stop 'anking about."

Never heard anyone but him use that expression, never did really know what it meant.
