Childhood superstitions
Posted by Mousey on 15 February 2010 - 10:14am.
Earlier today I drove under a railway line as a train was passing overhead.
As a child I remember this was always something my Dad always wanted to do.
(I should add that this was in New Zealand, where we don't have railway/tube lines in the city, so it was a special event as it could only ever happen on holidays, traveling up the North Island, and being on the highway the same time a country train passed over a bridge).
I found myself feeling triumphant and wishing my Dad was there to experience this momentous event.
Any other silly/superstitious kind of events like this?

Yes,
I too get a special little buzz when this happens [triumphant sums it up perfectly] - I thought it was just me!
I can't think of anything quite like it, but finding money in the pocket of an old pair of pants is another special feeling which happened to me recently - 20 quid since you ask - hurray!
