I always have to eat an even number of green (white?) grapes (and I don't mean the Bo Selecta, Mel B type either).......otherwise the world will end.

!

OCD, n'est pas? Are they peeled grapes?

Not peeled, just seedless because the seeds are the spawn of the devil himself.

Not really a superstition, but guffing downwind is just damn good advice!

As a post of yours,.. actually, for a refreshing change, conveys useful information...I will quote it.

You realise, that now you have a responsibility to inform us immediately the day you change that habit!

Agreed, but they are also great to spit at people. Little bullets they is.

I have stopped the chicken meat; after noticing an increase in the local elephant population. I now just place a piece of carved ivory in my garden as a sort of, "shot for the bow."

My Mum had several of these

Throwing salt over her shoulder (bad idea to stand behind her when she is cooking)

Grass green belongs to the fairies and should not be worn.

Putting new shoes on the table is an extremely dangerous thing to do (which was correct as it happens - almost invariably resulted in a painful clip around the ear so to this day I avoid putting new shoes on a table)

Saluting a single magpie - or desperately looking for a second one (One for sorrow, two for joy, three for a girl four for a boy etc.,). This used to not be too much of a problem but as there are so many of them these days it becomes a tad tiresome.

Punching superstitious people .... no wait - that is a new one on me

Not heard the one about the legs and sleeping before but then some are quite culture specific.

I believe running towards a checkpoint shouting Allah Akbar is considered an unlucky thing to do in some places.
