The company’s been taken over but we currently don’t know what will happen to our jobs - we're in total limbo.
I can’t do anything until I get the tests back from the Doctor - I’m just in limbo.
It doesn’t go to court until next year so the ownership of the property is in limbo.
Get the idea?
If not, you could always try limbo dancing instead - that’s something quite different. You’ll need a strong back! Don't try this unless you have. There's a free book for anyone who can do this!

The proof of the pudding
I’ve got a new idea; it’s even better than all the other good ideas I’ve had. I think it will work; what do you think?
Well, we won’t know until we try it. You know what they say; the proof of the pudding is in the eating.
That’s what this idiom means - the test of something is how it works in reality.
It’s a little early but maybe it’s a good opportunity to learn how to make a traditional British Christmas pudding.
This is a cake with the density of a small planet and guaranteed to immobilise you for days - but it is yummy!
You have been warned!
If you want to follow the instructions, you could make your own. Will it be a success? The proof of the pudding is in the eating.

One foot in the grave
It's been a day when many people have been visiting their passed away relatives in cemeteries.
But what if you have one foot in the grave?
It means you are getting old and won't be far behind them!
Let's hope not just yet though.
One foot in the grave is also the name of a popular British sit-com featuring the luckless Victor Meldrew. Retirement brought him no peace at all and he spent most of his time battling against the world as everything went wrong.
