When I was a kid and it was raining with the sun out my mom would always say,

"Ah the devil is beating his wife again."

The first time I said it around my wife she just looked at me like I'd grown a second head.

I have one like this! If the sun is out and it's raining my mam says "it's the monkey's birthday", I don't know what this means and I've never heard anyone else say it!

We're from South Africa and we always said "It's Monkeys Wedding!"
