Weel creeshed

I recently heard someone remarking on how 'them that hae' (people with money) 'a seem tae en up wae mere' (always seem to benefit from financial transactions or windfalls).

I was reminded of an aul sayin that an old lady from Carrowdore was fond of using:









A fat soo's arse is aye weel creeshed (creesh- soft, thick grease)


(You may wish to modify the language somewhat but its a great idiom)
