- Better late than never
As thick as a double stone wall with morter.
As thick as the hoozal of a hatched.
As thick as the middle of a cow.
As fit as a fiddle.
As deep as a tailor’s thimble.
As thin as a hen’s face
Eat your fill when your fill is at you.
As crooked as a dog’s hind leg.
It would take a tear out of a stone.
Take good advice when you get it.
As old as Metheauslem’s cat.
It is not a big stone alone that builds a castle.
Hunger is a good sauce.
As sly as a fox.
As supple as a hare.
As black as soot.
As dark as pitch.
As hard as steel.
As black as green.
As civil as a lamb.
As strong as a bull.
