All fur coat and no knickers

And

I love this saying along with champagne lifestyle with lemonade money.

We say champagne lifestyle and lager income.

And 'more front than Blackpool'...

But among my favourites, 'banging like a dunny door in a cyclone'.

Net curtains and eat spam

Champagne taste on a beer income

"Big house, no fire" as my grandmother used to say.

'Champagne taste and lemonade pockets' here

Pound note-ish on ten bob.

Red hat and no knickers.

‘‘A bit Harrogate”.

Bay Windows and no knickers here

just the other day I described Harrogate as 'all fur coat and nae knickers'

I remember something about bay windows but I can't remember what it was 🤔

More front than Brighton

No better than she ought to be.

Haha my nan use to say that.

Also 'dressed up like a dog's dinner'

Brown boots and no breakfast.

I like Prada tastes but Primark pockets

‘They’re very bay window round there‘

My Mum (In the 50s/60s) used to use it to describe the posh areas around Manchester, with their ‘bought’ houses, which usually comprised a Bay window.

I think Ena Sharples used the line in Corrie many years ago

You couldny sell some folk a brass neck

“A face like a robber’s dog”.

You can’t make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear.

All mortgage and baked beans

Harrods tastes, Woolworths income
