Radio interview with Alan Hickey 5AA

Today Alan Hickey from Radio 5AA in Adelaide interviewed me on the history of some common saying we use.

I explain why we say, “A pinch and a punch for the first of the Month”, why we talk about it “Raining Cats and Dogs”, the meaning behind “being saved by the bell”, what is a “dead ringer” and how those two are related as well as why we might want to “butter someone up”.
