The Curator | BS: Old expressions explained (127* d) | RE: BS: Old expressions explained | 19 Aug 05 |
I have often heard it said that when Oliver Cromwell was at his work in Ireland he ran into a bit of opposition and had to to rethink his sea landings on the southern bays of Ireland. To this he said he will reach shore BY HOOK OR BY CROOK which he did, two bays on the southern shoreline. Anyone else ever hear that one ? |
