28TH MARCH 2020

Jack Sprat Could Eat No Fat. Jack Sprat could eat no fat, His wife could eat no lean; And so betwixt them both, They lick'd the platter clean.


At its origins “Jack Sprat” was known as a proverb, and the term used to refers at short people in the 16th century.


Jack Sprat” Lyrics

Jack Sprat could eat no fat.
His wife could eat no lean.
And so between them both, you see,
They licked the platter clean
Jack ate all the lean,
Joan ate all the fat.
The bone they picked it clean,
Then gave it to the cat










AFTER READING THIS RHYME AGAIN WOULD YOU NOT SAY THAT IT IS STILL RELEVANT TODAY?


SO WHEN YOU GO SHOPPING AT THE MOMENT TRY TO BE MORE FRUGAL AND TO STOP “PANIC BUYING.”
