Feeling/looking crook (=sick)

"I feel/look like a sackful of arseholes" "I feel/look like someting the cat dragged in"

Or, for death..

"he went to sleep and woke up dead" - way to go. "oh, he's dead just now"

The other day, a punter on a bus tour asked about "Arkright", who happened to be on the mainland at the time. "Oh, he's on the other side" I said. "I didn't know he'd died" came the stunned reply "I was just talking to him on the phone a few days back". I cracked up.

Well, bauck to Mudcat Wireless (Radio)
