[GAME] Common English sayings

[Liv]

Hi everyone,

I don’t know about you, but I’m still over the moon about having emojis in the Community, so I have come up with a game still in celebration of the new feature.

Since a picture is worth a thousand words, I have translated 32 common English language sayings into emojis below. Can you guess which ones they are?

Be warned that there are some very British ones suggested by the amazing @Stephanie 😎

Also, please remember: many hands make light work, therefore let’s make sure everyone gets a chance to play.

24 - tempest on a tea pot   (shakespeare)

[Helen350]

We say 'storm in a tea cup' @J-Renato0 .... but I don't think that is the answer here... Magnifying glass & bowl of custard...? - No idea!

[J-Renato0]

@Helen350  .. I thought that thing it was a cup´o tea  😊

[Stephanie]

Oh aye @J-Renato0 , that's definitely my cuppa tea!
