    Or as I was told -
    'I see said the blind man
    I see a stone wall
    You cant said the dummy
    You cant see at all'

    That was often accompanied by a story of my mothers about a local family, who were said to be 'harmless' as they waked one of the family over a few days and tried to keep the corpse from rigor mortis by putting him/her on top of a sheet of galvanised iron, kept hot by the fire!! No names except that they were of Hugenot stock.:eek:

    Time is a great healer. Unless you've got a rash, than you're better off with ointment.

    The variation I learned was:
    I see, said the blind man
    A hole in the wall,
    No you don't, said the deaf man
    You can't see at all
