H

 Hold Up - (Delay)

  • There was a holdup with my order
High time - 
Hunch - ( an idea that is based on feeling and for which there is no proof)
  • I had a hunch that you'd be here.
  • Act on/follow a hunch. Sometimes you have to be prepared to act on/follow a hunch
  • Hung up to dry: (to allow someone to be punished, criticized, or made to suffer in a way that is unfair, without trying to help them)
  • They felt they had been hung out to dry by their employers.
  • He said, "we will not let the media hang this man out to dry.
  • Was this how loyalty to the party was rewarded? I was being hung out to dry.
