No. 2850: proverbial
We have had this before many times. But why not. An owl in a sack troubles no man. That's from the Staggers long ago. Good, isn't it? The Bob Scott one comes from the same competition long ago so don't try recycling them. As if you would!
You are invited to invent proverbs that sound profound but have no meaning. To give you inspiration, here is one I came across by Bob Scott: ‘The man on the Clapham omnibus will never get to Highgate’. You can submit up to ten each. Please email entries, wherever possible, to
