Re: Are you superstitious

Oh, I had forgotten the magpie one........I always salute a single magpie and ask if his wife and children are well....that is if I am on my own....if I am with someone I get them to look at the single magpie, because it defuses the bad omen......well, according to the rhyme:- This unlucky bird, when seen by two, will bring good luck to both of you.
