Say, say, say
I WAS thinking the other day about how we still use phrases from long, long ago, many of which have no relevance to our modern lives.
Then I got to thinking we should rework them to make more sense. Here's a few:
Where there's life, there's life
See a penny, pick it up, all that day you'll have a penny
Red sky at night, shepherd's hut on fire
Red sky in the morning, fire brigade still not here
Least said, quietest person
Never cast a clout til you find out what it means
Never judge a book by its cover, unless it's by Jeffrey Archer
Every dog has a wet nose
Home is where you live
In for a penny, you got in cheap
Life begins when you're born
No news is boring
No pain, great!
A friend in need is often on the phone
Two's company, three's the number after two
A Rolling Stone fancies Kate Moss
Cleanliness is next to the sink
Once bitten, go to the doctor's
Anyone think of any more?
