Now In A Minute

The originally Welsh oxymoron meaning you are on your way, but not immediately. You need a minute to gather your thoughts/things/feelings before you traverse the journey you are about to undertake.

Tradtionally shouted from the top of the stairs to parental figures.

Mum: 'Hurry up love, your bus is here!'
Victim: 'Don't worry! I'll be there now in a minute!!'
