Gardeners sayings and wise words

Unfortunately, alot of these sayings held true at one time but with the advent of spring getting earlier and winter being non-existent in parts of the UK e.g. rain and cold but still mild (we have averaged between 4-10 here during the day and -2 at night compared to 6 years ago, where we averaged 4-6 and -8 at night). Maybe we should come up with our own sayings:
Red sky at night, chemical plant leaking again.
Red sky at morning, fuel depot exploded.
Willow leaf showing it's belly, deforestation
Otter plays in the brook, high on chemical plant (see first one).
Today, I appear to be in a black mood...Best wishes

It will be dry between the showers
Works for meThere comes a point in your life when you realize who matters, who never did, who won't anymore and who always will. Don't worry about people from your past, there's a reason why they didn't make it in your future.
