POD of the weekend (continued)
|
Hi everybody, Here is the link to Saturday entries: http://www.eslprintables.com/forum/topic.asp?id=30073 It is a made-up phrase this time. It means you won�t find this POD in any dictionary, so don�t even try. I just hope this is allowed, if not I will be at your disposal for whatever the law has to do with me:) Here it goes: " to blow one�s wig before the farmer digs"
I will choose the winner Sunday night/Monday morning (Spanish time) so you have the whole weekend to send your entries. The chosen definition will be the first to be part of the new ESL glossary.
Anyone can participate! So, don�t be shy and post a definition only if it is witty, silly, crazy, twisted, meaningless, childish or incredible. Ready, steady, GO!!!!
***Ps: subscribe to this thread and you will have the new entries on your screen. |

This phrase is used when somebody leaves a restaurant or a bar without paying. Example:
�When I noticed I had left my wallet at home, I pretended to go to the loo, but instead I blew my wig before the farmer dug. � 
The �Espa�ol Rioplatense � equivalent would be �mandarse un paga Dios. �
Hugs
