    shines.
    Many hands make light work.
    A friend in need is a friend indeed.
    Clean and tidy are always thought of.
    Hurry never gains speed.
    Doctors differ and patients die.
    Youth must have its fling.
    There is no place like home.
    Everything that glitters is not gold.
    Do not spoil the ship for a halfpenny worth of tar.
    An orange a day keeps the hearse away.
    An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
    One trouble never comes alone.
    Never spare the rod from the child.
    Trying the unlikely places like Mike Kelly.
    Trying to take a drink with a strainer like Batt Supple.
