- It is said that Saturday is an unlucky day for beginning work. It is said that if work is begun on Saturday it will be a long time until it is finished. It is said that “Saturday’s flit is a short sit,” that is, if one changes from one house to another on Saturday he will not stay long in it.Some people would not go to the April fair if they had not set all the potatoes. They would set them the night before the fair rather than go to the fair without having set them.
