A Few Catch Phrases

I have been hearing all sorts of different phrases in the past few weeks and decided to share them. Maybe you want to add some to your personal ever-expanding vocabulary.

Gutted:  I was just gutted at the results of my test. We would use devastated.

Dune and Dusted:  Soon the regatta will be done and dusted.  The races is over and there is nothing else to say about it.

Too big for our boots:  The office is just too big for its boots.  We need to find more office space to accommodate all the people that work here.

Honesty call:  She came in with an honesty call.  She told the truth about it situation.

Hell yes or Damn sure:  Are you going home?  Hell yes or Damn sure.  Damn and hell are not considered swear words here but you would NEVER hear anyone use the word crap!

Sorted: We will sort it out shortly.  We will figure it out.

Guess that is all for today. I keep a running list so I can share.
