Totally irrelevant and nothing to do with living, moving to Spain etc but I like it

1.1.11
11.1.11
1.11.11
11.11.11

and if you take your birth years last 2 digits and add them to your age, Bingo 111 !! or 11 for the little uns'
eg 1964 age 47, 64+47=111

On 8.8.88 I sold a bungalow for £88,000. Ever since then I thought that eight was my lucky number. Until I discovered that a billion Chinese also think it’s their lucky number.

So if I ever win the lottery with all my eights, I’ll probably win £1.

Funny with you mentioning the 8's my eldest Son was born on 8.8.88 and my house no. at that time was 88, midwife said it meant I would have 8 kids I told her not on your nelly I ended up having 3, add that to 8 and your back to 11

It’s weird about numbers and things, I’m an even person and I’m happier in even years. As a silly exercise, years ago, I looked back over the years and found that all the good things happened in even years and odd years were bad ones. I took it further over leap years and the same applied.

I remember waiting about in a leap year, in Spain, for a lady to propose to me. We were sitting in a night club in Benidorm, on a most appropriate date, and I was ready to accept, the ring was in my pocket, I’ve even got a photograph of the happy occasion, but she never did.

I was gutted, but didn’t propose to her, fearing a negative response.

I got married on an odd date, and it didn’t work out, but on the last occasion it did, an even date.

I suspect it’s all nonsense.

Just think that at eleven minutes past eleven on November the eleventh of this year it wil be:
11:11, 11.11.11. There must be some end of the world cult loooking at this date no?

I like pasta with butter and parmesan.... freaky coincidence eh?

More fattening than coincidental me thinks

Yeah, if I ate it every day of the week.

Wooo, spooky. I think the Mayan calendar has something to say about combining dairy produce and the apocolypse.

Numerology? Fer fuxake. You can twat about with numbers all day. Next it will be crystals and angels.

Someone pointed out to me once that all those number twists that end up with you taking away the number you first thought of etc etc etc usually include the number 9, because it is the number of iron, meaning it is infinitely reworkable.

Nothing wrong with a bit of harmless twating about is there? Me thinks not

maybe not an end of world cult but that bunch of people in charge of the new Málaga metro have decided that it will enter service at 11:11 on 11/11/11.

That's just looking for trouble, if you ask me.

Yes and no. You could argue that if it gives someone pleasure, fair enuff, but I just don't like seeing people promoting rubbish.

People should be encouraged to apply critical reasoning, not just passively soak up other peoples' beliefs.

Years ago now, I remember Hedgehunter winning the Grand National at 16/1. I’m not much of a betting man, but I put a tenner on it because it had the number eight and was priced at twice that.

If I had applied critical reasoning to my selection, I would never had backed that horse, or indeed backed any horse, especially in the Grand National.

If I had applied critical reasoning to most of my life choices I don’t know where I would be today, but it is unlikely to be a foreign country bouncing with burglars.

I even had a shouting match with one of those con beggars at the gate yesterday, the ones with begging letters in ten languages for a charity that doesn’t exist. He was saying that I lived in a ****ing palace and wouldn’t even give five Euros to a charity.

(I don’t live in a palace and wouldn’t give money to a fat, lazy gippo even if I did).

Did he have a dog? In the UK a dog is the must have accessory for these people, some have 3 legs for extra sympathy, thats the dog not the beggar lol

I'd give a three legged beggar 5 euros. Well worth it.
