Normally something like "bl£&@y hell fire" or "keep it still" when I was acting as extra pair of hands to repair some old car or another.

 

But more recently "you don't get your time over again".

My favourite one was (and one I'll use with my kids when I have them) used in lieu of sympathy:

 

"It won't hurt when the pain's gone"

My old man was in the met 6'2 and at one point 24st he used to

beat bank robbers with a baton.

Most of what he said couldn't be repeated.

He was always raring up and ready to explode

After i had a good beating he always used to say " stop f@@@@ng

Snivelling like wet girls blouse"

Taught me how to take a punch and man up lol

 

"You'll go blind !" Was also one of his favourites
