Do you believe in the Magpie song 1 for sorrow 2 joy 3 for girl 4 for a boy 5 for silver 6 for gold 7 for a secret never to be told. The reason i ask is that for the last 6 weeks or so i have had 1 magpie where ever i am. ie front of the house, back of the house. when i went to the shops one flew down and landed just inches away from me. I have had nothing but bad luck, bad health etc during this time. My head tells me that this is just concidence, but my heart is telling me different. what do you think and is their anyway i can rid this run of bad luck. Thanks for listening Sue-Manchester

susan when my daughter was expecting her first child she asked to be told what sex it was.the dr said she was having a boy! towards the end of the nine months,every morning ,i saw 3 magpies sat on a peice of green near my house i told my daughter that the dr had got it wrong.she was gonna have a girl!naturally she laughed at me lol well ,eventually she went into labour and yes!! she had a girl!!!! i was right and wasnt going mad after all lol so the answer to your question is yes,i beleive there is some truth in the magpie superstition susie
