              Hopefully she wasn't smuggling peanuts at the time...

              I do like the phrase (when something's difficult) - it's like plaiting fog.

                      I'm oft heard saying "mad as a truck."

                      Some East End 'character' (convicted killer) was described as being so by 'a friend' (convicted killer with a book deal) some years ago, and it tickled me.

                      I've used it ever since.

                        How about " face like a bag of smashed crabs " someone who isn't too pretty to look at.
                        or " Face like a bulldog chewing a wasp" someone who is very very cross.

                                I've seen more fat on a greasy chip.

                                I've seen bigger things crawl out of apples (to boozy willy wavers)
