We have rain also when we hear the curlews crying and when the old people have sore feet, and when the sky looks very black.
We have good weather when the sun goes down very red in the evening and also when the moon looks very bright, and when the wind is blowing from the North in the Summer time, and when we see a large piece of red in the sky in the evenings.
