whats your favourite waterford expression ? personally i love " go way ya whores melt " which just beats " he had a pair of balls on him like two cooking apples in a darrers bag " of course theres the classics like "hang blaa" for ham blaa or upon seeing a some what strange looking man the expression " look at go of yer man " is often heard .so what have ye heard ?

Here's three for ya that I've heard:

One local gurrier to another up around Ballybricken: "I woulda bein' wit yor muddor last night only de doag bet me up de stayers!"

One woman to another on the bus to Lisduggan, complaining about the price of chicken curry in Crazy Prices: "1.79 for a bitta chicken!"

One woman my mother knows talking about another who moved to Ballinakill and started acting posh: "She have notions, she do! I knew her when she hadn't a knickers!"

i love "ya be going on " as a response to just about anything , you nearly hit someone with a football he says " ya be going on " you leave the house without drying your hair the mother shouts " ya be going on "

I couldn't believe it when I first heard my teacher referring to someone as the above down here. Up in Dublin this would have been considered Highly dissrespectfull and rude.
