- Kerry cows have long horns
Too late to spare when all is spentTell that to the Marines," said when a person tells an improbable story.He is a man of straw (not much means)All the months of the year curse a fine February
February fill dyke, and March dries it up
And if February does not, March will."A wet Xmas-day means a wet harvest.
A green Xmas makes a rich churchyardSoon ripe soon rotten
As wicked as a midgeLong fair, long foul (Said when we get a long spell of fine weather)- Collector
