Friday the 13th

[Martin-O2]

Hey everyone, 

So it’s Friday the 13th today which has got a bit of a bad rep these days. Around three-quarters of UK adults say they have suffered from bad luck on Friday the 13th and even businesses are not immune to this superstition with hotels skipping room the number 13 and car registrations adding a digit to avoid the number 13.

The origins of 13 being an unlucky number have routes in the bible, Norse mythology and the knights templar.

Personally I’m not terribly superstitious and always seem to have a good day on Friday 13th. Does anyone have any stories of bad luck on Friday 13th? Or is it a regualar day for you too?

It was bound to go off topic @Martin-O2....the minute @Marjo mentioned about bread placed upside down is a sign of bad luck...

No complaints from me if off topic threads go a bit off topic
