  1. Special Days

    Share Share Post
    Good Friday is a very lucky day for setting flowers because they always grow. On May Day it is unlucky to bring out a coal or to throw out water.
    Monday and Wednesday are lucky days for getting married.
    On Whit Sunday it is unlucky to go near water because you would be in danger of been drown before you would leave it.
    They say that it is not right to start a work on Saturday.
