So to get things started I'll share one which has an added dimension when you live "up north." When something has broken down you will occasionally hear someone say "it went south." I often wondered if this was actually an old northern expression.....many things needed to be sent south for repairs.
I hope others will jump in and share their favourites.
Cheers
