    4. Saturday is a bad day to change to a new house. The Saying is:
    Saturdays flitting is short sitting.
    5. Hansel Monday is the name of the first Monday in the year. You should not part with money on this day, because it is said, you will be parting with money the whole year round. But if you receive money on that day it is said you will receive money during the whole year.
