- Sayings
Keep a thing seven years and you will find a need for it
Laugh and grow fat, grow fat and be laughed at
As round as the bells of Armagh
As old as Mathusalas box
The longer you live the more you see
As cold as a frog
As stiff as a woit
As thin as a whip
As black as soot
As crooked as a dog's hind leg
As stiff as a poker
As straight as a rush
As good as gold
As tough as a whale bone(continues on next page)- Collector
