Australia has some good ones too.

Are you busy? "flat out like a lizard drinking"

Should we start? "I'm not here to fuck spiders"

"going off like a gumtree on a gas line " was a common saying in our school, but I'm not sure how wide spread that one is, referring to how damn flammable they are.

I also love that "a bees dick" is a valid unit of measurement on most construction sites.
