I'm not superstitious, but I have to admit I always salute magpies and say "Morning Captain". I have no idea why.

I salute and say "Good morning/afternoon Mr. Magpie" if I see a solitary one.

Nope, only the magpies and three drains. I suppose ladders too but that is more for fear of knocking it while going under.

What about the drains? Is it in case you fall down them, or they give way? I've never thought about it before.

I have no idea. Two drains I have no issue with but ever since I was a kid three drains have driven fear into me. Honestly I'll be walking through the city and then all of a sudden become a **** and jerk to the side of the pavement last second to avoid them or do the awkward little hop jump over them to the horror of every stranger around me.

We have 5 magpies that vsit daily they fly onto the roof opposite and on the tree in our front garden, I admit that when one turns up on it's own I ask it where is mates are..in my head of course, they normally land shortly after.

I've never heard of the three drains thing. Although now I have it will haunt me forever.
I am terrible though where magpies are concerned, I always salute, touch black then white and say Good morning/afternoon, how's your family! I have been known to almost crash my car looking for 2 if I see a single one. I also don't like to split round lamposts - if I'm walking down the street with someone and a lampost or sign is on the pavement I have to walk on the same side as the other person - I can't do one on either side of it.

Of course not, for the same reason I don't sacrifice goats or bury young children in the foundations of new buildings - it's pointless.
