Last month I achieved the remarkable feat of breaking a mirror on Friday the Thirteenth.

Looking back over the time since then, I haven't noticed any particular change in my luck.

Any comments?

Ian.

Ian,

Friday the 13 th is only unlucky if you are

1 - The King of france
2 - you raid the Templar Grand Lodge because you are skint.
3 - You convict the Grand Master on trumped - up charges of heresy
4 - You let said Grand Master curse you as the excecutioner lights the flames

5 You are superstitious.

As I doubt that you are exempt at least on the first count, there is no reason why Friday the 13th should be unlucky for you.

That's the optomist in you.

If you hadn't broken the mirror , you may have won the lottery, twice, or an inflatable Alex Lester or maybe even spent the most fantastic day/night out with the woman/man of your dreams. Your fairy godmother may have granted you three wishes. Newcastle United may have won the Premiership... who knows ..... ........ be careful with mirrors. Smile

Both my Father and my Brother were born on Friday 13th. They ended up with me. Make of this what you will!

My late aunt (died 1997) was born on Friday, 13th (June) 1913 but it didn't seem to do her any harm.
