What did you shout this morning when you looked at your garden?
"May Day" the first day of summer, or M'aider, "Help me".
Just curious

The first thing I say on the first of every month is white bunny rabbits.

it’s something my Grandad used to say. Apparently it brings you luck. But only if it’s the first words out of your mouth.
never known anyone else that says it or heard of it  .

Wow thank you. Lots of thing have just fallen into place reading that. My grandads brother was in the RAF . So I’m guessing it came from that. That’s great.

I've heard people say White Rabbits but not "Bunny Rabbits". I think your Granddad may have been amusing you.

I was taught to say "White rabbits, white rabbits, white rabbits" but only for months with a "R" in them, so May wouldn't count. Good job too, as I only realised it was the 1st of May this evening!
