A lot of people are superstitious but won't admit it, I am and I'm not ashamed of it, neither the wife or me open umbrella's in the house or walk under ladders, and if we were drivers we would never buy a car with number 13 in it, cars are dodgy enough without tempting fate so I can see a lot of folks skipping the number 13, bargains or not.
Here's another bad luck bonus, a woman whistling in the house, verrry dodgy indeed.
I don't walk under ladders either Jem. Oh no, not for superstitious reasons, rather because in 1977 I walked under one which slipped from the wall it was leaning against and fell right on top of me! No lie.
