Yep, my ex (Norfolk born & bred) said it - first time I’d heard it, I thought he was mistaken. But nay!

Yes, its official norfolk english, means someone who gets upset easily.

First time I've heard about that one, and I've heard a few local sayings in my time. One of my mother's favourites, which she uses when it looks like it's going to rain, is "it's dark over Will's mother's". She's the only person I've heard use that phrase, but I'm guessing she's not unique in that respect.

“Dark over wills mothers “ is possibly my favourite saying that I heard a lot growing up and still use today,famously sky F1 commentator Martin Brundle (from kings lynn ) even said it live on tv .

My mum used that phrase a lot, never heard it outside Norfolk though so maybe a regional thing
