After buying two £1 scratchcards with a £5 note I found randomly on the ground in Tesco and purloined with a feeling of guilt and trepidation.
Me: I always find it quite decadent to scratch a scratchcard with a £2 coin.
Her: Or even a £1 coin.
Me: But then I worry that I'm tempting fate.
Her: The universe won't let you win because you're scratching with a £2 coin.
Me: No! You do not deserve a million! You have money!
Her: So really you should scratch with a penny.
Me: Or a button.
Her: Or just use a fingernail.
For the record, I scratched with a £2 coin and won nothing. She scratched with a £1 coin and won...£1. There's a lesson in there somewhere.
