- (continued from previous page)How many thorns in an acre of furze? (None they are all "prods")
- When you have the hooping cough if you tie a purse around your neck & a worm in it you will be cured.
When you have warts if you put a snail up in a bush, when the snail withers the warts will go. - Wilful waste makes woeful want
See a pin & pick it up & some other day you'll have good luck. All together like Brown's cows (Brown's cows were always all together because Brown had only one cow)
Wet Friday - wet Sunday.
Come seldom - come welcome.
