You took your time coming!

Common expression used when someone has been in dire danger or threatening circumstances, e.g. a policeman up against a dangerous gunman with no back-up. When at last he has mastered the situation on his own and back-up eventually arrives, he says with a sigh of relief, 'You took your time coming!'e.g:-
--You ok?
--You took your time coming!:huh:

Ή "σκοτωθήκατε να 'ρθείτε!"

Το ίδιο ρήμα ταιριάζει και όταν ψάχνουμε εθελοντές για μια δουλειά και συναντάμε απροθυμία.
"Καλά, μη σκοτώνεστε κιόλας!"

Ή "με την ησυχία σας!"
 
The generic form "take your time", may also be translated as: μην αγχώνεσαι / μην τρελαίνεσαι, when it's a reply to another person's nervousness about timing.

-I am sorry, the traffic is horrible, I am not gonna make it on time!
-Hey, take your time.


-Χίλια συγγνώμη, αλλά δεν θα είμαι στην ώρα μου, έχει απίστευτη κίνηση!
-Μην αγχώνεσαι.
