- It is an old saying that if February will not fill the dykes March will.
If the market of Cullen is wet, the fair of Knockardin will be fine.
A wet and windy May fills the barn with corn and hay.
If March comes in like a lion, it will go out like a lamb.
Monard ash and Cordangan larch are the best woods.
A stitch in time sames nine.
A green Christmas makes a fat Churchyard.- Informant
