Me Mother/Father Always said
 
Just for fun remember the things your mother/Father always said and now you find your self saying the same things to your own Kids. One of the things my Mum would say took me years to sort out, and that was when it came to Tea time was eat what you can and can What can't all she mean't eat everything made me laugh.

Another one my mum used to say is " look at them ears!! you could grow spud's in them" when they were dirty.

Another one I use with my kids when they are sulking......" put your face straight, if wind changes it will stick like that"...... when I was young that thought scared me, but when I got older the thought of trying to make my face straight would raise a giggle.

My Mum used to say that thing about getting spuds behind your ears and everytime I had a wash I used to check in the mirror for any strange growth!

The greatest deterrant for misbehaving was from my Dad who threatened that if I did whatever it was that I shouldn't do he would 'knock me through to the middle of next week'. I suppose I'd be on the 'at risk' register these days for a threat like that:D , not that he ever actually did anything. It was just the prospect that he might which was enough to put anybody off.

I love the daft things like "you don't know you're born". Of course I know I'm born. I'm here aren't I?

When we were ravaging through all the apples ( that incidentally were given to my mother...she worked at Catlows and the brothers used to take pity on her and give her bags full of apples for us lot) she would say 'go steady with those apples....they don't grow on trees'....we used to be in stitches at that one.

I've probably told you this one before but when I was little I used to climb things. My Gran would say "If you fall and break your leg don't come running to me for sympathy"
