thai-vic Pillar of the Community Thailand 1509 Posts	Posted 03/07/2011 12:11 am One of my favourites: Don't spoil the ship (or sheep) for a ha'porth of tar. Ha'porth is a halfpenny worth. The usual reference is to a ship that may sink because of penny-pinching. The more unusual reference to the sheep is that cuts and sores on sheep were treated with a dollop of tar to prevent infection, to lose one is another example of penny-pinching. Cockney rhyming slang: "I'm off for a thrupenny bit" (threepenny). Refering to the act of going to the toilet. I'll leave it to you to work it out.
