Proverbs, Proverbs

[Moh'ses]

If you want good your nose ave fe run

Patient man ride ‘im donkey

Old broom sweeps clean, but the old one knows every corner

Hear and deaf see and blind

these are the lyrics from one classic tune when I get the name of it and the artist I'll post it

Have you ever heard this one, My Mother & Grandma who are from Westmoreland, J
used to say to me

"cow who no hear, woah belong to the butcher!"

It means if you don't listen then you are going to get it/(have to deal with the consequences (which could be severe)!

Respect & give thanks for such a quality subject to discuss

Another One i just think of, peer of i bredren use is

Mi come here fi drink milk, mi noh come here fi count cow

Basically means i come here to do this not that.

Kinda like a reminder of straifghtforwrd business conduction.

Same one in The Arrows-"Old broom"

Hi pf

You are totally right, of course. Also I see Moh'ses mentioned the saying earlier in the thread as well.
Apologies.
