As wide as the Clyde

The Clyde refers to a river in south Scotland that flows northwest.
The term ‘as wide as the Clyde’ likely denotes the length or size of the object or idea referred to (i.e. it can refer to figurative or actual lengths and distances).
Alison Thewliss (SNP frontbencher)
...the NAO report blows a hole ‘as wide as the Clyde’ through everything the Tories have been saying on Universal Credit.

Watching their movies you will see truly how hot they were and will make you very jealous for their romantic link.

Pull a clyde

When you're drinking liquor (typically Yukon jack) straight from the bottle and someone chugs the last of it, they are pulling a clyde.
You should pull a clyde because my sister, at the E40 concert, pulled a clyde and she had an AWESOME time afterwards!

Right Turn Clyde

I always thought this just meant you were a bit retarded. As in, you can only ever make an inside turn. So for us fellow colonialists, "Left turn Clyde". Never go against the flow.. only with it.. lick those windows.

Also apparently means some shit to do with a monkey but.. really?
Person 1: Oh shit, don't get directions from him!
Person 2: Why not?
Person 1: He is a window licker.. he's a proper "Right Turn Clyde". You'll end up going in a circle!
