My Mum used to say Pickled eels feet and cabbage. When we said "eels don't have feet" her reply was "used too, but they have all been removed and pickled"

Dear old Mum RIP :wub

My mum used to say scotch mist.

In my adult years I wish it was just scotch!

There is this being watching you. He made everything in 6 days and then placed a tree in the middle of this garden then told them to leave it alone.
When they didn't he punished them with various mean punishments.

Never mind, then he had a son, he sent him off to be tortured and killed. This allows everyone else to be let off the original couples naughtiness.

So long as they stick to a certain set of rules and behaviours determined by a bunch of guys who apparently have a direct line of communication to the being.

If you don't then you will die a horrible death. Everyone who does ends up living forever in this marvellous place.

And so on.
