Superstition.

Friday the 13th tomorrow. Are you superstitious? My mother was, she really believed all the daft things like not walking under ladders, no crossed knives on the table etc.

used to be not now. mhy mother in law died almost 10 years ago nov 13on a Friday. my hubby is very I am not I trust God

Me too, Erin

Keep strong, Erin. And God bless Dave.

'Triskaidekaphobia'...the fear of Friday the thirteenth, I read that on the underside of a ladder one day while out for a walk.

Triskaidekaphobia. Never heard the word before, so your fearless walk under a ladder has taught me something.

No

Okay.

Throwing salt over my shoulder fixed it

A cure all for all bad luck then

I'll deliberately walk under a ladder..and defy the devil.

avoiding walking under a ladder was alway a good idea, not because of superstition but people up the ladder sometimes dropped thing, paint while decorating or worse still tools especially hammers

Same reason as you Britboy.

momac , such a devil may care!

I have a cousin ( through marriage ) who got married on a Fri 13th.. said it was always a lucky day for her... and YES, she is still happily married...

Mind you,I'm not going to walk under if there's a chappie up there with a tin
of paint in his hand. or any tools.

Mother -in-laws Birthday was on the 13th and our 1st grandson was born on the 13th which was his great grandma's 80th birthday

I was born at midnight between the 12th and 13th,but my Mam always
used the 12th and have done ever since..although I'm not superstitious.

I was born on Friday 13th and somehow have managed to reach my 70th birthday without any major problems...............
apart from having my appendix and knee cartelidge removed and surviving a heart attack
