    He he he, Hey gorgeous!!'

    Well Here's my answer, there was this one time my chappal broke and I had a horribly runny nose and I was at my friends house. She lent me her slippers and also a brand new hand towel but I had to pay her a rupee. Some crap about people fighting otherwise:) She is a sweetheart and I went along with it but it was quite hilarious:)

    i think mine would be 'if you're itching on your palm for no reason-it means money is coming your way.....you take the highest currency you can get and scratch your palm with it.....the harder and how longyou scratch determines how much money will come.sometimes it works...sometimes doesn't....but the scratching thing always happen

    I don't know but i was watching a movie called - DIL TOH BACCHA HAI JI .. in which a lady said that - "If we don't say CHEERS by looking into each others eye... then one will have a bad sex life for the next 10 years"

    Keyword is Superstition right?
    Knock or touch wood when you accidentally say something bad luck like, "Let's hope he's not in the accident."

    While having some snacks with friends, the one who picks and eats the last piece will get a handsome husband.

    knocking on wood has to be the best! or when passing a church you make the sign of the cross.

    Do you know how sometimes you bite the inside of your cheek by accident?   Well, a friend told me once that when that happens, it's a sign that someone is saying something negative about you...

    The worst superstition was someone spitting on a broom because someone else acciditally swept their foot with a sweeping broom.

    Saluting magpies.  I love it when I see someone trying to salute a lone magpie without anyone else seeing what they're doing.

    Maybe this is more folklore than superstition........yet it came to mind......

    When the cows come home
    It is time for the  milking.
    When the crows fly
    It is too late to cry.
    When the duckling is a drone
    The farmer is in for a bilking.
