Very scouse.

My Auntie was a scouser, my cousin got knocked down in front of the house,her mum ran out and while her daughters leg was still wrapped around the wheel of the car leaned over and whacked her round the head for being stupid enough to get knocked over

Lancashire .. 'well I'll go to the foot of our stairs' .. if someone was astonished/surprised at something.

When I lived in Nottm/Derby some sayings were:-
Ey up mi duck

We still use all of those in our house, my wife is Beeston (Nottingham) born and bred and I am Mancunian born and Bramcote (Nottingham) bred.

And I think we have been here before on this subject, somewhere else, but I can't remember your username. Though I do suspect, now I come to think about it.

Yes we have been here but not here on the subject and I think you have got my username - and the clue is that there was a lot of leg pulling when a certain royal baby was named!
