   A tousled head was "like a bewitched barley stack".
   Anything lopsided as "all to one side like the handle of a can".
   The fox never sent a better messenger than himself.
   Story & Proverb:- She used to tell of an old man who lived alone called Brian Quigley. Discovering traces of a rat in his kitchen he decided he'd live & let live, so instead of setting a trap for it, he often left scraps of food for it. It became as tame that it often ran around the kitchen unmolested. One night he left his freshly greased "brogues" at the fire to "soften" - to find in the morning that one had been chewed by the rat. That night he set a trap and killed it. A person who presumed too much was warned by Granny to remember Brian Quigley's rat.
   Prayers
   On seeing new potatoes:- Thank God for the new food.
   On putting out the light:- The light of heaven to us
   When I found a needle on the floor:- God leave you your eyesight.
   On hearing the clock strike:- another hour of my life has passed Lord Jesus! receive my last.
   On hearing ill news (Crossing herself) The sign of the Holy Cross between us and all hurt and harm!
   On hearing the loss of an animal:- All the hurt and harm of the year go with it!
   We had to offer up all our good works "For the poor suffering souls, especially for our own nearest and dearest".
   Her observance of the Sabbath was very strict - one doesn't cut one's
