Are you superstitious

[DaveinGermany]

Despite all the misery that's supposed to befall you by not following certain superstitions, up to this point I've been rather lucky, touch wood & fingers crossed.

Yes, that might be the case, but it feels like half a house brick.

I'd never heard the white rabbits one, until I joined here, and dear Granny C used to do her monthly thread, seconds after midnight.

She still does it now.

On Facebook.

Saw this article this morning and wondering what your views are on this subject, not only this but other superstitions. I can't say I've ever had any superstitions myself, you know the black cat crossing your path or walking under a ladder and I certainly wouldn't refuse to live at a house number 13 that is for sure

The 13 in the block where I live is numbered 12a!

Or in the unlucky underpants!

I would say that where ever a cricket ball hit, it would be an unforgettable experience.

Rounders balls were pretty similar...maybe they were fashioned on a cricket ball.

I used to put my hands out to catch the blooming things and then imagine the pain I was going to get if I did by some miracle catch the ball....and put my hands down...letting the ball hit the ground first......no wonder I was alst to be picked for a team.....useless was a kind term.

You tell me now!

I'm not superstitious but someone has to tell me how to sort unlucky underpants from the lucky ones- and don't say 'The unlucky ones are the ones you put on'.

[Margaret Pilkington]

Gordon...got it in one!

[Gordon Booth]

Margaret, I can only see one way out of this problem.

Oh NO You don't mean........Go commando!
