    Since I was a child my mother and aunts have been "guaranteeing" good weather with this.

    Tomorrow I go to my aunt Ellen's and break that lump of plaster...

    I think one or other of you has twisted the Child of Prague Good Weather thing. It was for no rain on a wedding day if left out in the garden of the bride the night before. I doubt there's one left out every night in today's Ireland.

    Not forbidden by Catholicism. Or lots of Christian churches. Not that I’m a believer.

    Generally it’s fanatical religions that tend to be iconoclastic.

    It's in the King James Bible - but that's for protestants, so doesn't count.

    "Blessed are the rain-sodden and the windswept for verily verily I tell thee that they shall be bestowed the kingdom of searing sun".

    I know my bible.
