Whoring and snoring

May 9, 2008

As I walked into town for lunch today I was marveling at the sudden appearance of flowers - Horse Chestnut, Elder, and very soon to emerge Hawthorn.

The Hawthorn bush that I saw really had a lot of buds, which reminded me of the old adage, “Many a Haw, many a snaw” - meaning that if the Hawthorn bears a lot of fruit, lots of snow will follow in the winter.

See the title of this post for a more amusing, phonetic interpretation of this prediction. Zzzz.
