Proverb

At the moment, I am not able to post more than a few sentences at a time on LiveJournal. It appears to be to do with the Denial of Service attacks that are going on.

So I shall give you a proverb that I heard from a Welsh farmer near St Davids in Pembrokeshire just a few years ago. When I asked him about it, he seemed to think it was well known, but so far I have not found it in any dictionary or collection of proverbs:

You’ll catch more bees with honey than with vinegar.
