- If you let a knife fall it is the sign of a man visitor. If you let a fork fall it is the sign of a lady visitor. If a dog came in around the house with a straw in his tail it is also the sign of coming visitors; or again two hens fighting.
- If you let a spoon fall you should get someone else to pick it up or you would meet with a disappointment.
- When a tooth falls out bless yourself with it and throw it over your shoulder or it would not grow again - no tooth would grow in its place.
