  2. Unlucky Days

    Share Share Post
    Long ago none of the people in Ireland would change from an old house to an new one on a Saturday because they used to be afraid bad luck would follow them.
    None of them would start work on a Saturday because they used to say: "Anything started on a Saturday will never be finished." Any old people that are still in Ireland gets a mass said in the house before going to live in it.
