FIT AS A FIDDLE
Neville said:

Hey diddle diddle.. I do believe the origen of this phrase has evolved gradually from the very early 1603 Thomas Dekker\'s \'The Batchelars Banquet\' \"Then comes downe mistresse Nurse as fine as a farthing fiddle, in her petticoate and kertle\"... Dont ya just love clever clogs eh.... N :)

FIT AS A FIDDLE
ANGELA & BRIAN said:

Thanks for sharing UNCLE MIKE ~ methinks the implication is *Fit for Purpose !* I love stringed instruments and (as I speak) I have hanging on my lounge walls ~ Guitar (Gibson Kalamazoo) ~ Violin & Bow (from Grandfather) ~ Mandolin ~ Lute and Banjo. I play the Guitar (Hofner steel acoustic) & Spanish (gut strung acoustic). Like people who adorn their walls with clocks ~ consequently they are kept tuned (to my keyboard) and FIT FOR PURPOSE. If competant Friends call we can have a wee session because my Instruments are all *FIT AS A FIDDLE* ~ AMEN !
I*ll be with you *In two shakes of a Donkeys tail*

Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Yours BRIAN & ANGELA ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿงก

Poetic Dan said:

I\'m only a beginner but that bow fast or slow will drain the elbow, then the fingers moving so fast my brain burns keeping it all in time. If you sweat then I guess your fit in my book.

Great read my friend

Ha - such a perceptive peer at what seems a bewildering old adage Michael- - I often try to make sense of these proverbial sayings and here you bring out so well the nonsense in one of them.

As we all know, :art\" and artist\" encompass more than paint and brush, and include artists of the written word. I believe your poem is general enough to praise artists of all ilks. It consist of 18 craft-fully chosen words spliced together to explain what \"art\" is. Loved it. - Phil A.

VERY TRUE UNCLE MICHAEL ~ In my case it would apply to Science which is both My Profession & My Passion !
SCIENCE is only created by SCIENTISTS (especially in the 21st century)
ALL SCIENTISTS are not CREATIVE !

In the past mAny things were discovered accidently Gravity ~ The Steam Engine ~ Mauve Dye ~ Polythene ~ Penicillin ~ Radioactivity ~ Stainless Steel ~ The Wheel etc etc. Today the breakthroughs are made by Teams of PhD\'s workin in LABS with millions of pounds of equipment ! Even PhD\'s can (occasionally) be creative. Thanks for Painting ~ very creative !

Blessings to YOU & YOURS
