"taking the piss" We use it a lot down here also , must have got it from our pommie forefathers. Actually taking the piss out of someone is almost a national pastime.

the same as "having a lend of them" "taking the mickey out of them"

generally it's known here for poking fun at someone who's taking themselves way too seriously

It's not used in the US at all ? You forget sometimes which expressions are used over there and not used, guys on vox must really struggle sometimes to understand what the hell i'm talking about.

Redd,

Thanks for the clarification. I been listening to Telstar for two years and thought I'd heard them all. If furball knew me he'd know I'm the last one to take myself to serious. But then I can't remember the last time I've seen him in the CT.
