Friday 13th dot com

My family and I are about to move house. We've been waiting since February for our chain of properties and peoples to get their acts together, and to stop lying to one another. Finally, a week or two back, everything clicked and we were on. The natural date that seemed to suit everyone's requirements fell on the sixth of this month. This was agreed by all concerned. A subsequent 'hiccup' put this date out of the question, and the thirteenth was duly suggested, which happens to be a Friday. This was not acceptable to someone (don't know who) somewhere in the chain, and so the date was pushed to the 20th, which was acceptable to all (Quite why the date has to be a friday has not been satisfactorily explained to me, but there we go). I wonder how much of a discount on their purchase would encourage these people to abandon their superstitious principles?

Anyway, I was telling all this to a pal, and he suggested there should be a website selling cheap flights and theatre tickets for those people who feel bold enough to venture out on unlucky dates. Brilliant! Well, I think so.

Fill the otherwise vacant places in all kinds of things on days that are irrationally avoided by some people. Half price bungy jumps - Friday only!
