Would you buy a house numbered 7

I wouldn't mind a 7.

I did. Then I ditched the name (didn't like it and meant nothing to us) and reinstated the number.:cool:

We lived in a number 7 for a while and you could say it was lucky 'cos our son was conceived there

However I have also had lots of experience of living in houses with number 8 connections......

1) my family home (only one we lived in from my birth to when I left home) was 216 (2x1+6=8) - So, no number 8 connection really

2) my uni flat was number 8 (burgled twice)

3) first flat bought with DH was number 7 (married DH and conceived our son whilst living there) - No number 8 connection

4) first house bought was number 53 (5+3=8) (scary neighbour tried to tell my fortune said '8' would feature prominently in my life - she wrote out my 'fortune' but I destroyed it without reading it) - Again, no number 8 connection

5) next house we bought was number 8 (burgled once)

6) next house we bought was number 8 (this was my dream house and we were going to stay forever but we had financial probs and DH tried to kill himself)

7) next house we bought was number 120 but it also had a name (no '8' connection, but we hated living there and consider it one of our biggest mistakes, house-wise) - Again, no number 8 connection

8) our current house has no number but a name comprised of 8 letters (it is also my 8th house and supposedly our final and forever home).......... - Lovely...but still no number 8 connection

Am I the only one that laughed out loud at this load of nonsense?:D

Well, I wouldn't call three burglaries and my DH taking an overdose in which he nearly died a load of nonsense......thanks for the sympathy Elvis

Do you remember that programme 'the prisoner''.
"You are number 6"
"I am not a number"

I don't believe in any supersticious clap trap. I'll live in any house anywhere. I live in a number 13 at the moment, no major issues so far (nearly 2 years in)

I've moved house sooooo many times ~ oh the joys of renting
In my life-order I've lived in: 38, 36, 82, 99, 116, 67A, 37, 1, 262, 86, 11, 25, 124, 25, 15

that's 2 x number 25's

but not a number 7 yet...

Considering you paid so much attention to your house numbers (and came up with such creative ways to link them all with the number 8), I'd have thought you would have learned from the burglaries at numbers 8, and avoided the third number 8.

Who knows, if you'd only moved into number 9, your husband might not have touched those pills. Then again...

number 9
9+9 = 18
18 is 1 & 8
9/9 = 1
1 & 8 - 1 = 8!!!:eek:

So maybe he still would've attempted suicide after all.;)

I wouldn't buy 7 or 5 again! Just speaking from the previous experience.
