If someone asks for the time, and it’s 9.50/21.50 it’s customary to say “it’s cowboy time” cos it’s..ten to ten

We don’t go to McDonalds, we suckle at the great yellow tits of America..( I think it’s a Stephen King reference).
As in.. “We’ve had a hard day, shall we just suckle this evening?”

On the upside, my teenagers cringe so hard now that they virtually turn inside out.

Years ago, my nephew was trying to gain unauthorised access to the dining room where his party tea was laid out.

He was about three, couldnt turn the handle.

We heard him urgently shouting 'CAKE! HELP!' repeatedly in a deep cockney style tone that sounded distinctly like Arthur Mullard despite him attending a very posh pre prep sort of nursery in Surrey...

No one in the family has been able to say the word cake normally ever since.

I don’t get the ten to ten thing even with people saying the Lone Ranger. The theme was the William Tell overture and I can’t get ten to ten to fit that. Wrong sounds.
