Friday the 13th (and...???)

Surrounded by people with silly ways of behaving on this particular date, I have decided to make up a few myths and superstitions of my own. Please note these are MADE UP and therefore nothing to worry about, but I’d love to think that in two or three hundred years there’ll be a group of people around who believe them…

If you dance naked at midday on Friday the 13th your soul will be condemned to spend eternity living in Hammersmith.

Any child born on a Friday the 13th will have a birth mark in the shape of a walrus.

Any child conceived on a Friday the 13th will be born backwards, smelling of gin.

If you arrive at work late on Friday the 13th, for every minute you are late you will spend an hour of the following day with cramp. 

It’s bad luck to walk under an Irishman.

If you step on a crack in the pavement at 11.15 on a Friday, one of your parents will get a kidney stone. (Your dad if it was your left foot, your mum if it was your right)

If you’re the first person awake in your house on Friday the 13th you’ll be the first in the household to die.
