British employee: Well, this was supposed to be completed by now. It looks like it's gone all cock-up.

Hmm- I've heard 'going tits up' for something dying.
'Give it some welly' = ~ work harder at it
'taking the mickey/mic/michael/piss out of someone' = ~ to make fun of
'bodge job' = 'jerry/jury rig' or 'mickey mouse' something
'Are you winning?' = ~ Is your work going well?
Hmm- I might have to mine the Two Wheels Only that I got for the flight home for more choice Brit idioms.
