   You're as yellow as the blossoms of the furze.
   All edge and nothing to cut.
   You can't get blood out of a turnip.
   Far off God-sends
   Take life as you get it.
   Once bitten, twice shy.
   Take the bull by the horns.
   There is never smoke without fire.
   Hunger is the best sauce.
   Better to be born lucky than rich.
   The longest way round is the shortest way home.
   Far away cows wear long horns
   Half a loaf is better than no bread
   A burn't child dreads the fire.
   Tell me your company and I'll tell you what you are.
   Too many cooks spoil the broth.
   There is no use in rubbing lard to a fat pig's back
   A joke is a joke but to kill a man is murder.
   You are only swinging the lead.
   Every cow has her own calf.
   A big head with little sense.
   You are getting into hot water.
   Stop running up my sleeve.
   He comes without asking like the bad weather.
   The last straw breaks the horse's back.
