Yep. I do the magpie thing too. Only the other day, my daughter was in the car with me, and we both simultaneously saluted - and burst into laughter,
I do have one (unusual) suspicion - that my dear old Dad passed on to me. If you drop a knife, never pick it up yourself. Some might say he was just a lazy bugger, but I inherited it and now I'm stuck with it. Matters are made worse because I live alone. I once had a knife on my kitchen floor for days! 
Another (totally daft) superstition that I have is:
If I put a jumper on back to front, it has to stay that way all day. |

I always salute a lone magpie, but that is about it. Which is surprising given my Nanna could turn any everyday occurrence into a superstition.
Dropped the salt - throw it over your shoulder or bad luck will follow.
Don't walk under a ladder you'll die.
Never let a baby see it's reflection.
She was full of others too. |
