I know I’ve shared these before, but I can’t help laughing every time I reread them – I hope you do too! These are all thing said – or mis-said, by colleagues in meetings – same colleagues over ten years of meetings… some of them I can’t even remember what the words should have been, or even what they meant!

- Best thing since Cheddar cheese
- Bobfoc, you’ll know it when you know it
- Breathalysation
- Bushy eyed and bright tailed

- Celebrity sausages.
- Chicken dressed as mutton
- Crisps contain a lot of salt and e-factors
- Dave: There’s a fly in the ointment. Phil: there are many flies in this ointment

- Electric trousers
- Going up a niche
- Handed a spoon to redeem himself

as my old boss used to say
you can take the horse to the river
but you can’t make a pig’s ear from it
