My Gran had some great sayings and she used them often! Its something that I remember vividly about her - Gran had a saying for everything...
Here are some I remember her using often and they have been passed down to my mum and now to my sister and I. They are firmly planted in my memory.
- Change is as good as a Holiday
- Pink to Make the Boys Wink
- Be sure your sins will find you out.
- Better late than never
- You can't make honey outta dog shite
- Cut your cloth accordingly
- Many hands make light work
- Count your blessings
- Don't cry over spilt milk
- The best laid plans o' mice 'n men gang af the glee
- Feed a cold Starve a Fever
- Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names can never hurt me
