Not really a saying but one of my farming customers once told his new neighbour after a small dispute "why don't you fu*k off back to the town you green wellied bas*ard" Made me chuckle.
A saying amount my mates as an adaptation of 'if a jobs worth doing..etc' is:
'there's no point in sh!tt!ng next to the toilet'.
Another one used for an anti climax is:
'it's/it was all fart and no sh!t!'
Shaking like a dog shxting snow balls..
About as straight as a blackies back leg..... Blackie being a Scottish blackfaced sheep..
A man with no morals would Shxg a slaters nail bag
When my father was making something in the workshop and I would ask what it was, his reply was always the same,
" it's a wim wom for a wowser which helps to grind smoke " and of course that explained everything.
When referring to sex he always said that " it would pull you further than gunpowder will blow you "
Not rustic, but middle-class suburban:
The ultimate expression of puzzled surprise used by a now somewhat vintage acquaintance is
'Well, screw me for a chocolate pig!'
Looking at the rear of a well built girl an older friend commented "I'd like to see that between a pair if barrow shafts", ie pushing a barrow round his yard.
He also opined that a somewhat stuck up and difficult woman (she did not agree with or defer to him) needed "a good tomin'".
a Aussie once said to me when he was hungry, "I could suck the crutch out of a low flyin duck" and a well known terrier man used to say the morning after a night on the lash " I,ve got a throat like a badgers armpit"
When I used to beat on a partridge shoot, I'd hear the boss say to the keeper over the radio 'tell that man (the flanker) to get a light infantry pace on'
On pheasant drives, we'd be told by the keeper to 'walk like you're going to a funeral'.
as my father used to tell me ( listen here now don,t tell your father how to ****) another is don,t put your cock where i wouldn,t put my walking stick
