if you see a magpie on its own, do you salute it or owt?

i'm not one for superstition at all, but recent events are just a bit too coincidental.

One for sorrow.......

Someone once told me as a lad you are supposed to hold your collar until you see a four legged animal.

What's happened?

I thought you meant the kids TV show...kind of ITV Blue Peter.

 Had a couple in the garden just before it got dark......don't hold with superstitions  Wink , but do hold conversations with robins about forthcoming fixtures.

 Could be about the TV show.......

  Magazine show. An attempt by ITV to make a show to rival Blue Peter, featuring things to make and do and other fun and games. An early segment saw David Jason in comedy sketch as Captain Fantastic ( a character previously seen in the show Do Not Adjust Your Set ). Magpie began on Thames' first day of broadcasting ( 30 July 1968) and finished  6 June 1980. The shows mascot ( a Magpie obviously) was called Murgatroyd. Initially once a week after a year the show went twice weekl

 Do Not Adjust Your Set was brilliant.....a kid's show it had the aforementioned David Jason....Bonzo Dog Band and Micael Palin and Terry Jones.
