To me the phrase is purely used when your so deep into a situation you cannot pullout and a victory is the only outcome you can deal with.

Now I used that in a meeting today discussing a situation we have with a customer. It appears the audience didn't take the phrase as I intended and the ladies are quite upset !

So am I way out of line here or am I correct in that it's a commonly used phrase not smutty at all on a par to up st creek without a paddle

Not way out of line, but not something I'd say in a meeting thats for sure... unless I knew everyone really well, and they knew me...

Would it be inappropriate for me to suggest that you're a load which should've been swallowed?

Really? You didn't think it sounds at all sexual? Were you brought up in a convent?

I would not use it in mixed company unless I knew the audience well and the girls were a bit laddish and robust. Perhaps in a sales meeting if I knew the team well.

Not really the sort of expression to use in the accounts office.

I have a feeling you are in a similarly deep amount of doo-daa as my old boss who thought it would be a good idea to use the phrases "chink in the wall" and "nip in the air" while presenting to a group of Asian businesssmen at an inward investment forum...

You need to watch the Inbetweeners. They understood the context of the phrase at least, but theri naivete led them to debate whether the balls actually go in.
