Cats, Dogs and Ducks

You will be in a very difficult situation now that he's let the cat out of the bag.

If I were you, I would not raise the subject again and my best advice is to let sleeping dogs lie.

Remember if you go into that meeting without being prepared with some answers, you will simply be a sitting duck.

I'm afraid he didn't take my advice and they made him look a complete fool because he was unrepared and he ended up a dead duck.

Mind you as I have said many times before I don't know how he's lasted so long in the job because he's always been the lame duck in the team.

The older generation always maintains that in their day things were better and nowadays the country is going to the dogs.

If you're unsure about which way the cat is going to jump, I suggest you hang on for a bit longer.

There is no need to apologize about your remarks as I can assure you it's like water off a duck's back to me.

Once more he is in the doghouse but I couldn't possibly tell you why.

As so many people are coming to a party at their house, they're running around preparing food like scalded cats.
