*salute a solitary magpie and say out loud 'Good morning Mr. Magpie'

I do the magpie thing too but I say, food morning Mr Magpie, where's your wife.

I also wave to sheep.

I do have a reason for it.. my friend once told me of an Italian tradition which said it was good luck to wave to sheep if they were on your left hand side... or it might have been the right side, I can't remember, so to be on the safe side, I wave to all sheep. :D

I do the Magpie thing, but it's "Good morning Captain, how's the Mrs?"

The sheep thing... well (and I say this without malice and with love)... you're weird.

- If I'm the only one in the house, or before I go to bed, I go around the house making sure all the locks and doors are completely shut, make sure all the plugs are off that need to be and make sure everything in the kitchen is all turned off, and I sometimes do this like three times just to make absolute sure. I've been late for my bus a couple of times because I've just been rushing round my house like a madman checking everything :laugh:
- My DVDs must be ordered in alphabetical order.
- When I have a roast dinner, I always eat the meat first, then the stuffing balls/yorkshire puddings and then the veg, always leaving the potatoes last.

Glad to see it's not just me who does the Magpie salute. :hugesmile:


Does anyone else not walk on 3 drains either and look a **** to try and avoid them at the last minute?

Lee. 22-06-2011 04:04 PM

KG, I too have a plug obsession. I unplug everything in my house apart from my fridge and freezer.

I have a terrible fear of fire. My next thing to do is invest in a rope ladder for my bedroom...just in case.
