I have always been interested in knowing where sayings have come from, things like "a bird in the  hand" or "up the creak with out a paddle"
 Does anyone know what these or others mean?
 
 I will start off with " Pot holes" when the Romans were in Britton they would build the roads from clay, the local villages would come along and dig a hole in the road to take the clay out to make a pot, " POT HOLES"
 
 Anyone know anymore.
