So, you actually have your left shoe on before you've got your right sock on? Have I misinterpreted this? :?

I know some people who don't whistle on a theatre stage or say 'the Scottish Play' instead of Macbeth.

I Dont believe in any of that bollocks but i still generally touch wood and salute magpies, also avoid walking under ladders, passing people on stairs, spilling salt, opening umbrellas indoors and putting shoes on the table – just in case!

From there you can smell the food and the wine, and hear the party going on, but can't join in.

I know this because Fr. Murphy (the bastard) told me. So it must be true.
