HMS Friday is an urban myth — a contemporary maritime legend that purports to tell of a Royal Navy ship deliberately commissioned and sailed on Fridays to disprove the superstition that beginning a voyage on a Friday is unlucky. The story is false: there was never a Royal Navy ship named HMS Friday, and the tale functions as a folkloric cautionary anecdote rather than a historical event.
Hagbard and Signy (also Habor and Sign(h)ild) are legendary human lovers of Scandinavian heroic tradition whose tragic saga—preserved in medieval prose (notably Saxo's Gesta Danorum) and in a long-lived ballad tradition (TSB D 430)—was widely sung and commemorated in place-names and monuments across Scandinavia.
