"Pulling your leg"
"Such a dag"
I've also heard, but can't comprehend, that Hokey Pokey icecream is only available in New Zealand http://p.vtourist.com/1148067-HokeyPokey_I...New_Zealand.jpg

Pulling Your Leg
That is a familiar expression here, though it seems to be less common than:
Pulling your chain
Jerking your chain
"Yer bangin' me, right?" (Also, right up there in the couth department "Yer f***in' me, right?" and "Yer s***in' me, right?")
I am trying to remember the Dag in "Such a dag" but I have not heard that expression for ages, and had to have it explained to me back then.
