- Friday is a very luckly day to begin any kind of work. People rarely start work on a Monday as they call it an unlucky day. People, who want to get any kind of cures always get them on a Monday or a Thursday. If people want to remove any furniture from an old house to a new one they always do it on a Friday. Those born on Whit Sunday are always supposed to be cross. Farmers like to start ploughing on a Friday.
