    Whether it is true or not people say that there are lucky and unlucky day's in the year. It is said that the thirtheenth of every month is an unlucky day. Friday's moon goes three times mad, and Saturday is twice as bad. When people are going into a new house, it is said that Saturday's flitting is a short sitting. The three borrowing day's are the three last day's of March. They are called this because Winter borrowed three days off Summer.
