The year will be fine Steve - no different to any other. Superstitions are a nuisance to say the least, we get hung up on them and cant enjoy life - dont get like that Steve....
Good wishes to you....

2013 started off badly for me with a friend passing away on the 5th but my third grandchild is due to be born later this year so that balances things out in terms of "luck".

Re: 2013 good or bad luck

Sorry to hear about the interview UKmartian. What with one thing and another it doesn't seem a very good start to the New Year for you.
Maybe good, bad and indifferent things just simply happen. I am not sure if I believe in good and bad luck. I think we just have to keep plodding on and try to keep trying - not getting defeated, but just hoping for something positive to happen sooner or later. Best wishes for this New Year. Rena.

Re: 2013 good or bad luck

I have got my interview ...I left 3 messages yesterday and phoned again today at just after 9 am .....Strange that the lady who answered said "is that Steve ?"..I hadn't even introduced myself all i done was to ask if she was Christina ......I wonder if this was a test to see how i reacted etc. ....At least i got a telephone interview tomorrow at 10 am...Its only a part time job and a 6 month contract ...but if i get it i will at least be back in business and a foot in the door .....
