What "Old Sayings" do you know???

One of mr.fiz`z favourites to young fiz is,
Chuck ya spade away or you`ll not get out the hole.another is,Mad as a ships cat.my friend likes to say,
Go boil your head.
I recently read,If you lie down with dogs,you wake up with fleas.

 

Its raining cats and dogs and it is too

Age dinsi come itssel.

I forget about the sayings until I saw this thread.

Some shall come back to me.

 

Little birdy do not cry cannot sing cannot fly
useless b-----d
A blind man on a galloping horse wouldn't notice
When being asked something and not answering mum used to say, as cat got your tongue
It will either rain or go dark before morning
Save your breath for cooling your porridge

 

One used qiute often by the lads at work...
'As safe as a Church tied to a hole in a hedge'! :D

 

There,s nought as queer as folk

when i used to ask my nana what was for tea her answer was always.

A walk around the table

 

My Mum used to say
" its too cold to snow"
- Tell that to the eskimoes.

 

:D

 

Parental reply when faced with my "I thought..." as a response to a ticking off for something was -
"Thought followed a muck cart and thought it was a wedding."

"There's nae pockets in a shroud"

About women who've married money and have delusions of grandeur, my Nan always says they're "All fur coat and no knickers" :D :D
