Magpies (copy)

Are you superstitious?   I'm not generally, it all depends if the superstition is about good luck or bad for me.  In other words if it's bad luck I will probably ignore it and if it's good luck then I adopt the idea that anything is possible!!  Seems good logic.  A bit like positive thinking.

Anyway, driving home this afternoon I saw 2 magpies pecking around in the grass while I was waiting to make a turn.  Obviously I am now due for some joy!!   I shall let everyone know what joyous things happen over the next few weeks.

Here's the rhyme as a reminder for anyone who has forgotten it or never heard it.

One for sorrow,
Two for joy,
Three for a girl,
Four for a boy,
Five for silver,
Six for gold,
Seven for a secret
Never to be told.
