  1. You'll know when there are poodles in the street.


  2. When we lived in hovels in days gone by it was cold at night and the animals lived in the rafters of our wattle and daub homes to get the risen heat from our peat fires..

    When it rained the roof usually leaked and the cats and dogs fell out of the roof beams to escape the rain.

    Hence "raining cats and dogs"
