    Seven years bad luck if you break a looking glass.
    A death in the house if a picture falls of a wall.
    Magpies:-
    One for sorrow,
    Two for mirth,
    Three for a wedding,
    Four for a birth,
    Five for silver,
    Six for gold,
    Seven a secret that never will be told.
    Rainbow in the morning,
    A sailor's warning,
    Rainbow ar night
    A sailor's delight.
    If you walk under a ladder you will not grow
    If you put an apron on inside out you will have luck.
    If you right ear is hot someone is talking bad about you. If your left ear is hot someone is talking bad about you
