I saw it now on the other one and thanked you there but will thank you here too - lol

smouse - is the top one one very long proverb or four short ones?

Thanks

Liz

The only lead I can get on the top one is along the lines of

Men have many faults,
Women only two:
Everything they say,
And everything they do!

But I don't know the end they are looking for. Hope this might help.

I'm sure I just submitted this but now I am not so sure so here it is again

I had got men have many faults in my head (cant think why?) but despite googling hadnt been able to get any further. With the women only two bit I shall work on it

Thanks so much

I am presuming that this is the answer

Men have many faults;
Women only two:
There�s nothing good they say,
And nothing good they do.

I can't find it exactly htough, I've adapted it from this versions of the proverb I found

Men have many faults;
Poor women have but two:
There�s nothing good they say,
And nothing right they do.

Hope it's right for you

Found this one also, which with the other one I found earlier confirms in my mind that my guess at the answer in my previous post is right -

Men have faults, women have two:
There's nothing good they say, and nothing good they do.
