....child's arse through a keyhole

    arse end off a scabby dog
The one a few posts back about 'a child's arse through a tennis racquet' is one I heard slightly differently, regarding someone with buck teeth: that they could eat an apple through a tennis racquet.

It caused some puzzled looks and raised eyebrows.

I think this is a line from the movie Quigley, Down Under:
My stomach thinks my throat's been cut.

perhaps it has been used in other places as well.

......eat a newborn baby's bum through a cane chair.

The bloke I married when I was young and silly (and from whom I have been divorced for a very, very long time) came from a country town 100 miles north of the town where I lived, and he used expressions from his area that were completely foreign to my town.
