  1. (continued from previous page)
    And every day fine after St. Patrick's Day.
    (There is no welcome for a wet March - dry wings hoped for).

    A dry summer never begs its bread.
    Nothing good ever came from the Co. Cavan but a cold day and a robber.
    The wind from the North East never blew good for man or beast.
