I'm not a superstitious person. I don't avoid row 13 (indeed its the exit row on a 737), black cats, ladders etc. I don't need to say hello to a crow. I don't believe in fate. But I got caught out. After 11 years of marriage the wife spotted my guilty secret, exposed me for the hypocrite that I am.
When I board the plane I have to touch the outer skin as I board, to say hello.
I don't know why I do it. I don't know how long I've done it. I just know I have to do it. I'm a reasonably sane person. I'm am engineer. I know the plane isn't going to crash because I forgot to pat it.
Please help me feel normal, tell me I'm not the only one that does something daft.
