A Bit Mere

Following on from one of last weeks postings Literary connections or mere Edyecatshin. Where I wrote about one of my Uncle's aul sayins     'As fu as an egg's fu o meat.' 
Well tha nicht I he'd mind o anither yin in tha same vein.


As full (fu) as tha eye o a pick

Abin's proof that yinst tha hannles in it's brave an full. 


Other sayins which might be employed to show that someone has reached their capacity are:
As full as forty cats and As full as a po. 
However the last one is used mostly to indicate someone's level of inebriation and not how much they have had to eat.


Note: I am indebted to Liam Logan for the last two sayins.
