Just realised its Friday the 13th today, suppose I'm slightly superstitious as I like to use the same turnstile on match day but if you had an accident or a real shit day would you blame it on today's date? if someone offered you the chance to bungee jump above the County Ground car park today would you do it or say no because of the date?

Wouldn't do a bungee jump anyway, as I'd shit meself on the way down and meet it coming back up again.

The date would have no effect.

Nothing bad has ever happened to me on Friday 13th before. Although I did just lock myself out of my house for 2 hours...

It wasn't going too badly today until some bloke wearing a hockey mask just tried to fillet me with a machete.

I hate it when that happens

Sorry about that, I've had a bad morning...

Think this is the thing, a lot of people who have real bad luck today will put it down to the date. I wouldn't do anything to risky due to the date but some overly suspicious people think it's safer to hide away for the day.

I saw Eric earlier in the sports shop asking for the Hockey department.

I got mugged on Friday the 13th a few months back. Apart from that I don't think anything bad's happened to me.

Fear of to-day is called triskaidekaphobia  .......   it's only a number of course and it makes you wonder how it might actually work that unknown forces cause you to slip, fall, lose money, get ill, or have accidents on certain days of the week.   100% bollocks IMHO

Isn't that just fear of the number 13?

paraskevidekatriaphobia is fear of Friday 13th.

At the time or after did you think anything of it being Fri 13th though ?

Correct, my good man - I misread wikipedia - full quote
"The fear of Friday the 13th has been called friggatriskaidekaphobia (Frigga being the name of the Norse goddess for whom "Friday" is named and triskaidekaphobia meaning fear of the number thirteen)"
