At the beginning of March, I made comments on the three Saints Days which begin March. First there is Saint David’s Day which is the most important as Saint David is patron saint of Wales. Then there is Saint Chad’s Day and the rhyme, “Saint David and Saint Chad, sow seed good or bad.” Then March 3 is Saint Winnaloe’s Day and there is another rhyme, “First Saint David then Saint Chad, Then Winnaloe as though he was mad.” This refers to stormy weather associated with Saint Winnaloe’s Day.
