II Cliche
• Idiot box (TV)
• Get ripped to shreds
• Slicker than a wet weasel on a linoleum floor
• Clutch shot to win the game
• Life sucks and then you die...
• Little bird told me
• Cardinal sin
• As fate would have it
• Living doll
• A chip off the old block
• Nutty as a fruitcake
• Couldn't care less
• Bloody but unbowed
• A rose by any other name would smell as sweet • An Albatross around the neck
• At wits' end
• Do a good turn
• You get what you give
• Fork it over
• Keep your fmgers crossed
• With flying colours
• Sweating like a whore in church
• Play fast and loose
• Busier than a one-armed wallpaper hanger
