  1. (continued from previous page)
    clean water is in.
    The longest way round is the nearest way home.
    Many hands make light work.
    A half of loaf is better than no bread.
    One trouble never comes alone.
    A friend in deed is a friend in need.
    The old dog for the long road and the pup for the puddle.
    A bad workman also quells with his tools. Grown old grown worse.
    Fan go fóill and time will tell.
