Not at all he regarded green as unlucky wouldn't wear it or have any green property ie.bikes etc .As did many others in Sunderland and by the way I'm talking of a time long before those records you mention Mr Wellnamed

Grandad was born and bread Sunlun ,and as you say wasn't alone in thinking the colour green unlucky why I don't know ,and he was definitely not anti catholic in any way his mother's name was named Marie Kelly a lady from Cork. I m sorry for dig at your user name ,was a little miffed thinking you were having a go at my grandad being a bigot as I can most certainly say he wasnt
