The lights are on but nobody's home (someone very dim)
It went down like a shit sandwich (ie not very well)
As much use as a rubber hammer (ie useless)
He's tighter than two coats of paint (mean)
He's rougher than a badger's arse / robber's dog (rough!)
Face like a clog heel (ugly)
He's got a face I would never tire of slapping (about someone who is highly irritating)
It's better than a kick up the arse (ie be grateful)
I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him (ie not very far)
