- 19-12-'38The people of this district generally marry on Wednesday as it is a very lucky day. The following rhyme tells the days on which it is lucky or unlucky to marry.
Monday for health
Tuesday for wealth
Wednesday the best day of all
Thursday for losses
Friday for crosses
Saturday no day at all.
Birthdays.
Monday's child is fair of face
Tuesday's child is full of grace
Wednesday's child is loving and giving
Thursday's child must work hard for a living
Friday's child is full of woe,
Saturday's child has far to go.
But the child who is born on the Sabbath day is bonny and bright and happy and gay.
The first day of April is said to be the cross day of the year as it is the coldest and wettest.Taken down by Mary Walshe,
from her Mother. Mary Walshe, Kinnagh
