    I believe in the red sky ones but not so much the others. As for vampires, well... :?

    The apples haven't worked for me :roll:

    I've eaten plenty of garlic and never seen a vampire :wink:

    I never want to eat when I've a fever and am ravenous when I've a cold :roll:

    I thought the red sky at night was a seaman's warning though :?

    Hi Sylvia,

    The sky one kinda holds reasonably well for the night but the morning one.... you don't usually get a red sky in the morning ifs bad weather but the night one kinda holds.......

    Hey cows laid down doesn't work either and Vampires...... well depends on the vamp as to weather you want them kept away :lol::lol: Cris x
