"What you on agate", Stanerlee. God I love it, I've not heard that in donkeys’ years. Soft Mick was part of our childhood, but I've heard people up here in Blackpool use the expression a lot too.
The use of the quote "more shoe's than" and the expression "Soft Mick" where always used in common conjunction, Leading to the idea that he was an Irish shoe peddler (with house and Cart) working the east lancs area in the early 1900s.
