Awww, sorry, we can share it, OK ?
 
No need to be sorry, sir. It was just my question and I wanted to have others' ideas. So thank you to start this thread. :wink:
 
Quite simple no!

My friends refer to me as the unluckiest person they know!
Truth be told it`s probably not bad luck more to do with the fact i tend to walk around thinking and not paying attention to my enviroment, therefore i tend to trip over things, slip on wet floors, step on rust nails etc.

LUCK! Luck is not a factor. 6 Nations was the reawakening of the Dragon. I can't wait until November when we get to beat the All Blacks and the Aussies.

Luck? Sure, I have lots of luck, all of it bad. (But, of course, if things go well, it's certainly not luck, it's skill. :biggrin:)

I think I have pretty good luck. For example, when I play rummy with my family I win 60%+ of the games, which I say is skill :smile: but my family says luck.

I have seem true bad luck hit the same people time and time again. I can also say the same for good luck. I'm more of a even keel luck person, a little of each and my boat won't tip.

I used to be pretty lucky when I had less than 17, but now I'm not. :cry: :cry: But well at least I know people who have really bad luck and bring bad luck for others too. :rolleyes: My favorite football team always loses when 1 of my relatives comes to visit us. So I try not to invite that person when my favorite teams have an important match.
