| Strapping the cat on the bacon |
Helping someone with a bad case. |
| Born in a rowing boat |
Always leaving the door open. |
| He was hit by a sail arm |
He is mad. |
| Spinning good yarn |
Making a profit. |
| Can't spin yarn with her |
She is useless. |
| He is the cigar |
He got caught in the act. |
| Walking on the dike |
Flirting. |
| He does not fly very high |
He is rather dumb. |
| He is walking alongside his shoes |
He is bragging. |
| A vicar is passing by |
Silence in a conversation. |
| Too stupid to dance for the devil |
Too stupid for anything |
| The dummest farmers grow the thickest potatoes |
Luck is better than knowledge. |
| Being a guest in the world |
Living without any sorrows. |
| Gentle healers make stinking wounds |
It is better to treat a problem thoroughly even if the treatment is painful |
