IDIOMS AND PROVERBS
a bolt from the blue
a fish out of water
a storm in a teacup
add fuel to the fire
at a snail’s pace
at the eleventh hour
break the ice
call a spade a spade
get out of bed on the wrong side
in the pipeline
jump the gun
let the cat out of the bag
once in a blue moon
start from scratch
throw in the towel
an unexpected happening
out of place
a fuss about nothing
make matters worse
very slowly
at the last minute
begin first
state things bluntly
be grumpy
about to happen
start too soon
reveal a secret
rarely
start from the beginning
give up
