What's your favourite?

I love the word mardy.
I love shut your cake hole.

What can I add to broaden my repertoire?

Stood at a bus stop in Liverpool as a student early one morning and one of the ladies waiting loudly used the phrase "...'ees gorra face like a ruptured custard..." which led to proper uncontrollable laughing from a few of us.

I always thought it was akin to twit but then some down south posters set me right.

Wazzock
Daft 'a'pe'th (halfpenny worth)
Twonk
Twallup
Two sandwiches short of a picnic

I'm not from Yorkshire,I always thought apeth had something to do with apes or gorilla's 🤣🤣
Silly sod 🤣

My nan was from down South (Wigan) and she called people besoms (bisoms). It described a bloody minded woman - usually kind of admiringly, but suggesting that she was wrong.

Oh! Besoms/bisoms!
I thought it was another word for bosoms so rather like calling someone a "right tit"!
Only a right one though mind, not a left one...
😅

In Manchester they were called "beesoms" - like the sweeping brush - same meaning though, a women who was a bit of a shrew !

Aw, my Scottish mum used to say “ya we besom” if I was being difficult/contrary.

Tuss (Cornish) - anything from “idiot” to “cunt” depending on the intonation and emphasis on the ssssss. Has most impact if used alone, no accompanying adjectives. Maybe a snarled lip.

My dad was from Wirral and use to say daft apeth too!

Yes, a besom is an old fashioned broom, which looks like a witches' broom.
