Fly in the ointment – more difficult than air.
Lend me your ears – you can have them back tomorrow.
Hear a pin drop – hear a pin drop what?
Heart in your mouth – swallow quick.

Pardon! I can't hear you!!
Andy
What ya say?
Good write and pic M.
And how can we wear our heart on our sleeve?!
it's easy - just button your lip and do it parrot fashion.
Eight to go, to your 1,000 poems - rattling on towards it!
You made me check up - yes nearly there - must write some serious stuff.
Oh no! I was dreading this for,... yesterday i did not put off till tomorrow that which i wished i had waited for today.
Yours are more thought out than mine by far.
Ah yes but tomorrow will be yesterday the day after whilst yesterday today was tomorrow - simples.
ANGELA here (Clinic @ 2pm) Good Mit Vok Uncle MIKE! Love the cartoon! I know what your mean I have been accosted from a CAR (BMW !) while walking in London ! I was offered £50 ! I declined and gave Him a Gideon New Testament but not my Phone Number I was 25. He thanksd me - smiled & crawled on! Only Gentlemen drive BMWs?
My fave is No 2. The famous Speech by Marc Anthony after the assassination of JC by Btutus et Al ! It behoves us all to listen more - especially the MINISTER for EDUCATION!
Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love Angela - Brian - Smokey 🧡💙🤎
No one's ever accosted me and I don't drive a BMW. And at my age ..........!
Yes we should all listen - especially the Minister for Education (Frank Spencer?) who seems quite out of hos depth.
Someone once told me, "It was so quiet you could hear a mouse drop." I guess that's mixing idioms, though. Your 4 gave me a laugh. Liked Marc Antony"s line best, "Lend me you ears - You can have them back tomorrow." Plunk it into Will's play and it is a Monty Python skit. Still laughing.... - Phil A.
Love the idea of mixing idioms might hacve a go - thanks for the inspiration Phil. And thanks for the comment.
