A saying of my mothers if there wasn’t much in the pantry was

It’ll have to be catch us catch can tonight.

My father, in response to the question, what’s for dinner Ken? Would often say “Hosscock n onions”.

This backfired on him when the teacher asked my five year old little brother what he was having for his dinner.

My gran said we would have bread and pullet for dinner. A loaf of bread and we'd all pull it.
