Old farmer's saying's..... do you know any ?

Chap who taught me to drive a tractor worked for my grandfather then dad for 40 years, used to say “Good old days, f@@k the good old days” he would have anything that made life simpler and easier, including our 1st 4wd tractor a MF 699, dad thought it might be too big. The chaps ashes are in his favourite spot on the farm.

Bg
Father said exactly the same ‘the good old days, there wasn’t any’

The sayings I heard were in Welsh,probably loose a bit in the translation.
Un wennol no wna wanwyn.
One swallow doesn't make a spring
Gweld yn bell, glaw yn agos.
If you can see far, rain is near.
