I have my funny little ways but i pick and choose my superstitions....
I have 2 black cats, by coincidence but you never know!!!
I dont walk on 3 drains!!!!! :doh:
But most things i dont really fuss about!
What about you?
:sparring: :scared:
Won't walk under a ladder, throw spilled salt over my left shoulder, don't spin knives.
i never let a black ladder cross my path!

I used to be so much worse with superstitions- verging on ridiculously obsessive!
Now I stick to the usual- avoiding ladders, knocking wood, salt over shoulder etc, but the worst one is that every time I see a lone magpie (which is usually several a day on my commute to work) I have to salute 3 times and say 'good day sir' 3 times!
And on the first of every month I have to say 'Rabbits rabbits rabbits' before I say anything else that day!
I worry about myself!....

I'm not superstitious at all, but I am prone to the type of 'magical' thinking that people with OCD have.
For example I have to say "Be careful" to Mrs Kiss if she is driving anywhere, because if I don't I will pace, panic and worry until I hear she has arrived at her destination safely.
Rather annoyingly there are many, many 'things' like this that rule my life at times, especially if I'm worried or stressed. But it's nowhere near as bad as it used to be, and for that I am very grateful.
Opening an umbrella indoors or walking under a ladder doesn't phase me at all, but don't expect me to be able to get to sleep if I haven't turned the landing light on and off twice.
I won`t walk under a ladder, I have to salute a lone magpie and say good morning mr magpie, I won`t walk over 3 drains or split a post!!. oh I also freak if anyone puts new shoes on a table!!!. omg im scaring myself saying this didn`t realise just how superstitus i was :shock:

I'll let you know if anything happens to me.........
Duncan, Silk and Big G were worried about posting on this thread, what with there being thirteen posts already here... looks like we'll have to keep an eye on you... how's it going so far?
You haven't opened any cats indoors, or stepped on any cracked new-shoes have you?
wouldn't want you tempting fate or owt would we?

I've been cleaning the kitchen in the nude, since posting, I've cut my hand, broken a plate, trapped my cock in the fridge door, attempetd a fry up and set fire to my pubes............
Superstitious haa nonsense..........
No I don't think so.......although other people's superstitions sometimes rub off on me if I am with them!
I'm not superstitious, even though I have broken sooooooo many mirrors when i was younger I just take everything in my stride.
