Following on from RMS's thread about superstition. OH and I took the pensioners group which has now dwindled to seven ladies, all in their eighties, out for lunch yesterday. We are the babies of the group in our sixties. |

It brought bad luck to any home if a redhead was the first to wish the occupants 'A Happy New Year'. |

All I was saying, as a ginger (pronounced to rhyme with singer with a hard g) myself, was that there was little need to give individual teapots to group of women, the youngest of whom is 63. |
