I hate to tell you Field Marshal, but I have heard every one of the phrases or words you have posted used within the last 6 months.
On the other hand, my grandmother, who was from east Donegal, used to refer affectionately to people as being as daycent [decent] a hoor as ever you stuck a grape in.
As a child this confused me terribly and produced strange images in my head, me not realizing a grape was a farm implement.
Unenthusiastic about any of the buggers.
Well heres one you havent heard in the last 6 months

[COLOR="Red"]Grocer[/COLOR][defunct] is the local convenience store not [COLOR="Red"]manned[/COLOR][defunct] by a [COLOR="Red"]shopkeeper[/COLOR][defunct.
The nanny health brigade increased cigarrette consumption by banning the sales of [COLOR="Red"]packets of ten cigarrettes[/COLOR][defunct] thus ensuring that smokers always had plenty of twenty pack fags on demand in their pockets.
