    Those that ignore the past are fated to repeat it.

    Anyone know how the one goes about turning the money in your pocket over on a full moon ?

     @Dragonslayer according to a yahoo answer you do not turn the money ,you show it to the moon. The moon should be new, very new, and you should notice it yourself, and tell no one, and show bank notes. It means that you will have money all the next moon (month). The more you show the more you will have. 

    Who knows! ?‍♂️

    For some reason I woke up last night and thought of a really good saying and thought I should share it on this thread, and now I can’t remember it! :#

    @66Mustang why don’t you sleep on it, ha ha. ?
    everything looks better after a good nights sleep.

    to sleep perchance to dream.
    we are such stuff as dreams are made on.
    dream on. 
    Etc, any bells ringing? ?

    This thread has reminded me of this Yorkshire airlines comedy clip on Youtube - warning contains some borderline language  :)

    Who’s she? The cat’a mother.

     I’ve told you a thousand times.

    No pudding unless you eat your dinner.

    Back in my day.

    Do as I say not as I do.

    Move away from the tv you’ll get square eyes.

    Because I said so.

    I have never learned anything from someone I agreed with

    People in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones

    The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the enemy die for theirs

    I still can’t remember the saying I came up with when I’d just woken up... :p

    Never say anything you don't really mean, or can stand by.
