Re: Traits,Habits, Quirks and Superstitions

I must confess there are many superstitions mentioned that I have not heard of before.

Poor Artangel, gosh... I understand now when you say to many to mention.

I know a few who chuck salt over their shoulder if they had spilt it over.

Some of these superstitions, sound like something I would relate to Witchcraft

With the number of times I've had to clean gull splat off our windows, why aren't I rolling in dosh?

Something I learned on telly the other night but can't remember which programme I was watching (Eggheads, I think): We are born with only two innate fears: the fear of falling and the fear of loud sounds.

Shoes on table is another.

I rarely walk under a ladder unless I'm feeling brave.

I always remember when I was about 13 my friend and I walking up to school and a bird chit on her head, it went 'splat' literally, it was so funny but I remember saying 'oooh you are in for some good luck' Eh, why the heck is bird crap associated with good luck LOL
It was lucky it wasn't you.
