New Expression


I found a fun tea towel the other day that is titled "Yorkshire Expressions". Strangely enough, the towel reads "made in England", but the tag says it is "made in Ireland". It has a copyright date of 1985, so it may find itself in sosovintage one day. But before that happens, let's have some fun with it!

    Thank you for your comment on my daughter's skirt. I appreciate it.

  4. It means "I was amazed". I like to walk around saying it with my horrid British accent. For some reason it makes me giggle :)
