- In olden times the people thought that it was unlucky to plough or build on certain days. It is unlucky to sow seeds of corn or flower seeds on Thursday or on Saturday. It is said that the crop would not prosper.
If you built a house on certain lands it would fall after a year or less. The old people believed in old crafts.- Collector
