I've heard of a Yorkshire saying "By hell as like" i.e. "Like hell it is!"
It's all part of the "ee ba gum is it eckus like us maybe" type talk from oop North.

I'm an Aussie, but my Nana was a Yorkshire lass and she often used to say " will 'e 'eck as like'. Which meant he won't. And he usually didn't!
