  2. Lucky Days

    Share Share Post
    Some people believe certain days of the week to be lucky. It is not right to start anything new on a Saturday. Or change animals into a different field. If a farmer was going to start ploughing he would wait until Friday which is supposed to be the luckiest day of the week. No person should put anything new on them for the first time to a dance or to town. They should always go to the chapel first or else it would not be lucky.
