The Idiom challenge

[PrincessFiona60]

"Back in a tick."

 

[babetoo]

"many a slip between cup and lips"

 

[Somebunny]

That could be "a fly in the ointment"

or could be arse over tea kettle

I'm certainly not going to "bend over backwards" to figure that out.

FWIW, Andy (I think it was Andy who started this thread) this thread has expanded and includes cliches and metaphors, as well as idiomatic phrases.

It was actually loveabigdog that started this really fun thread CWS4322 ;-)

Wouldn't want Andy to "get a big head". Lol!

How did I ever miss out on this thread? Sometimes I think I'm a "half bubble out" and "two bricks short of a load".

 

[babetoo]

how bout "a day late and a dollar short"?

 

[Kayelle]

Babe, be ready for the "Frog Drowner" , "gully washer" that will be heading your way from up here. Hope we don't get any "bowling angels", as that makes me more nervous than "a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs".

 

[babetoo]

not here yet. but it is always "calm before the storm" i don't think that is an idiom but it fits. lol

Are you sure you aren't "several peas short of a casserole?"

Or it could be "not playing with a full deck"

 

[babetoo]

or "not the brightest bulb in the pack"
