Happy friday the 13th!!!

Luckily been unscathed so far as bad luck is concerned but i think its the only day off from it i get so suppose its luckier for me lol

Have you all escaped from the bad luck superstition or has it caught up with you?

Guess it's been an unlucky day for me having given notice to quit our house and then seen the responses to a different thread about areas of Accrington.

Better sit down and discuss schools again with my daughter I think !!

Well you never know till you move, people said up ere was really rough & bad - errr been here 5 years on the 2nd next mnth - record stayed in house i've had without moving, yet the area that i lived before was good rep then turned bad

so cant really base it on perception till you live there LOL

Just thought i've lived in some rough areas in tother town yet apart from the odd thing once a week - handy for nosey people like me in fact 3 areas were when u told people where u lived they'd eek with disgust & pity & the 1 area that had no rep classed ok/nice quiet was the worst ever place in fact moss side would of been more appealing than that lol

People tend to remember the bad things that happen to them on Friday the 13th. If something happened to them on any other day, then i doubt that they'd even think twice about it.

Rock FM's gag this morning

The DJ started off by offering one of the girls in the office with him a fiver to break a mirror. She wouldn't do it cus she said it was a pretty mirror (how girlie is that

) Eventually the money he's offering gets to £500 so another girl in the office says "give it here I'll smash it for £500" . That's when the DJ told her that her 7 years of bad luck had started cus he didn't hve £500 ................ Well it tickled me anyway

Why is Friday the 13th considered unlucky anyway?
