Question Author
On the long finger, I've not heard that expression,
can someone explain, Please

Thanking you
Poorclare, it seems to be an expression said/used mainly in Ireland. It means to postpone or delay indefinitely.
//put (something) on the long finger
To delay or postpone something indefinitely or for a long time; to procrastinate. Primarily heard in Ireland. I've been meaning to send in my college applications, but I keep putting it on the long finger.//
Hi Clare, growing up, if we were told it's on the long finger, it meant it was delayed ..like a day out, a holiday ( staycation as they're called now) always on the long finger - sometimes never happened
Question Author
Thank you my friends
This prove one is never toooo old to learn,
I'm 77 years young (lol) and I had never heard the
expression.

Thank you, hope you all have a pleasant evening.
