Other one's we use here for it are

and
"Who dropped their guts"

Is that just here or all over

We use "Who Dropped Their Guts"on the rare occasion that a British person actually does...

Please, Please tell me that the rare occasion is actually QE II

"Talk to the hand!" (sometimes accompanied by "cause the face ain't listening")

Meaning - "I don't wish to hear what you have to say"

Common i think around the world? Or just here in the UK...??

Of course, we also have alternatives......

When I was at school if someone farted it was "who let Tommy out of prison?" and I never really knew why. Also as used in episodes of childrens' drama series set in a school Grange Hill "ohh, somebody's honked!"

Here's one we use

Fair Suck of the Sav

exclamation of 'You've got to be kidding' or 'You've got to be joking'

Man 1: " Meat Pie and sauce thanks mate"

Man 2: "That'll be seventeen bucks"

Man 1: "Fair suck of the sav!"

When I was a kid I had a larrikin aunt and uncle who'd say things like 'busier than a one legged man in an arse kickin' contest' or 'what tucker do youse kids want for lunch, sangers or a pie and dead horse?'
With all that generation gone, you rarely if ever hear anyone talk like that anymore. Or if they do, it's just a affectation.
