your blood's worth bottling

If an Australian says to you that "your blood's worth bottling", he/she is paying you a major compliment.

If an Australian believes you have been of great assistance to him/her in some way,for example solved a worrying problem for the person, had a positive impact on the person's life, been a true and helpful friend to that person, or done something of a significant positive nature for that person then he/she may show his/her very great appreciation for your help by telling you "Mate (or your name), your blood's worth bottling". Generally it is a special compliment only handed out for some personal contribution by you that the person believes is of particular significance to him/her. It is said when other methods of showing your appreciation are not enough, where it may be difficult to put your feelings into words or where it saves you going into a long winded explanation of your feelings.

almost not worth thinking about

An understatement for: Really shouldn't think about it at all.

"They say he fucked an ostrich." "Just him? I'd think fucking an ostrich would be at least a three-man job." "It's almost not worth thinking about."

Worth its weight in gold

Something or someone that is of high value.

For instance if someone is worth their weight in gold to you, then in a literal sense (assuming that person is 150 lbs.) their value would be 2,847,000 USD. (Because gold is worth about 1,300 USD per Troy ounce)

The new financial controller I hired cut down our expenses by 26%. He is definitely worth his weight in gold.

What?! 15 bucks for a drink? What, is beer here worth its weight in gold?!
