A bit OT -- Bad luck comes in three's
I'm sure it is not just a local myth but I have certainly grown up with the
sort of belief that "Bad luck" comes in three's" I am hoping in my case this is true and that my run of"bad luck" ( or misfortune if you prefer ) is now over 1. 28 October 2005. While my car was stationary a large motor home tore away most of the right hand side of my car as I sat there, inside it, totally gobsmacked and powerless to do anything about it. The car was a write off. 2. 12 December 2005. My trusty Velocepanther was stolen from outside the village post office. Cable snipped and away in the back of a van, Just had its winter service done and two brand new Schwalbe Marathon Plus fitted.and 2 new bottle cages. 3. 29 January 2006. Turned down for a job as acrobatic clown after cracking 3 ribs in a botched forward roll that failed to clear the car driven solely for such tests! So here I sit ( the first morning co-codamol pills are just beginning to take effect) typing with crossed fingers. I think I will pop outside and see if there are any black cats around ( well hardly "pop" --and there's a flight of stairs to negotiate with the hand rail is on the wrong side for me when I descend!) -- Trevor A Panther In South Yorkshire, England, United Kingdom. |

Or maybe buy a lottery ticket for the euro millions , you must be due some good luck! Simon |

So, what lottery numbers do you recommend I buy this week? :-) R. |
