I have been looking over my home and thinking about it. Some things people might find of interest. My home has a slate roof it has not always been that way. It was built in 1565 the roof was thatched thick straw piled high, with no wood underneath. It was the only place for animals to get warm in winter, so all cats and other small animals (mice bugs) lived in the roof. When it rained it became slippery and sometimes the animals would slip and fall. Hence the saying Its raining cats and dogs.
Another fact drink was had in lead cups ale and whisky. The combination would sometimes knock the imbibed out for a couple of days. Someone walking along the road would take them for dead and prepare them for burial. They were laid out on the kitchen table for a couple of days and everyone one would eat and drink and wait to see if they would wake up. Hence the custom of holding a wake.
I don't know how many time this has happened to me. but it is offten.
