Diet är lättare att prata än att säga något - it's easier to speak than to say something (of meaning).
Got a poster for my classroom which is covered in sayings - this is the Swedish one!

I think I may change my signature to this quotation from Mae West - who got me onto this then!! How true is this then.

- Dictators who positively go out of their way to force misery, tears and fears, upon their countryman's lives.
Politicians who, in dealing with dictators, have a wishbone where a backbone should be.
Whenever someone says to me,
"Oh you look familiar, where do I know you from"?
I love watching their reaction when I respond with...
"Do you watch porn"?
(anon)

I have a slightly naughty one - coined by my husband. More of a strap line for Minecraft, actually! Apologies in advance.....

This was on today:

Hmmmmm...that's like the one about the elderly man isn't it? He looks at the obituaries and if he's not there, he gets up

SO funny Scandi. I especially love number 8. I wonder if it would be a good idea to take such weaponry to a doc visit!

Oh Carol, that's just wonderful! My partner's mother was from Lancashire and he sometimes does stories in her accent so I actually know what that poem is supposed to sounds like! Hah...no fee for you!
I am going to get him to read this for me Thanks for that, it takes some skills to write an accent to point how it's supposed to sound. Now MINE might be easier. I was originally from Bristol or Bristle. Still have it even after being in NZ for 32 years but I am sure I NEVER sounded like Long John Silver!
