My Dad did too.
I never, ever heard him swear, but when he said that, you'd know he was really mad, and so gave him a wide berth for a bit.
I've mentioned it before, and no one really knows where it came from, even though it's apparently not uncommon.
Some think it was from a film, of the same name.
