I think Sunday is the day you lay in the sun ..... Friday is the day when you have a fry up ..... Thursday is the day you want a drink..... therefore Tuesday must be the day you eat chews .......

The word Tuesday refers to the day after Monday and the day before Wednesday. It lasts for 24 hours or 1440 minutes. It is normally regarded as a working day as opposed to Saturday and Sundays which are the weekend days. Tuesday is not a very popular day being near the start of the week but more popular than Monday which is regarded as the least popular day of the week. Friday being the most popular as it is the start of the weekend.

Tuesday is sacred to the god Tiw (who is roughly equivalent to Mars. the god of War, hence the French, 'mardi' for 'Tuesday':

Tyr (or Tiw, Ziw) is the ancient god of War and the Lawgiver of the gods. He sacrifices his hand so that the evil Fenris wolf may be bound. At one time he was the leader of the Norse Pantheon, but was supplanted by Odin much later. There is nothing to indicate how this occurred; one assumes that he simply "stepped back" and let Odin assume the position of leadership. Tyr is excellent in all manners of Justice, fair play, and Right Action.

And then "Tuesday's child is full of grace" ...
But it's a thin and bitter pale blue, is Tuesday ... Wedneday is a bright yellow, Thursday is green ...

Personally, I think the answer should be Thursday.

Think it's got something to do with Tiu - the Germanic god of war and the sky
