Favourite local phrases


Was chatting with Erin earlier who asked if she had a Brummy accent, she said she spoke too much slang and was common Unlike me the posh jock
So I wondered what is your favourite local phrase. I have two that I like to use.

Fill yer boots, which kinda means have as much as you want.
or
Fits the poop? which basically means whats happening.

Whats yours?
