Glad to have helped UT. It's actually a term I use when I'm castigating my kids for being slow with stuff like cleaning their rooms up or mowing the lawn.

I say, "hurry up and get stuck about it and then it'll be done and you can go".

It actually must seem weird for people to hear such terms and wonder what they mean, but all languages are like that I guess. You lot say some pretty weird stuff which I ask for clarification on.
