Superstitions

It’s lucky when a bride sees a chimney sweep on the way to her wedding

If the palm of your left hand is itchy money is coming

If a pair of scissors falls on the floor you will get a disappointment

If you meet a funera lcortege walk 3 steps with it

It’s unlucky when the Christmas candles don’t burn straight

It’s lucky when you have a dream with horses in it

If you find a horseshoe, spit on it and throw it over your head for good luck

When a bird poops on you it’s good luck

Never leave a house by a different door to the one you entered through

When a donkey brays, it is a sign that a tinker is dead

If you pick a flower on May Eve the fairies will take you away with them

When your nose itches there’s a fight to come

.

Note –the fella walking behind you will be mad as a box of frogs though.
