What's your favorite number? Why?

In some cultures, 13 is a bad luck number. In other cultures, 4 is a bad luck number.

42 is the answer to everything.

Some say 7 is a good luck number.

I’m partial to 6 or 7, just from eliminating the others.

What’s your favorite number and why?

I have always chosen 7 and this was the case long before I was told about it’s significance as a lad. When I had to decided between two houses when moving for the final time, the number became the deciding factor. This proved to be an excellent choice as the other property burnt out within a week of the new occupants moving in from what was believed to be an electrical fault; so all the 7’s was definitely lucky for me :+1: Besides this substantial older property gave much more bang for my buck :grin:

Addendum:- I typed “When I had to decide” which was wrong as all decisions are always joint in our marriage :couple_with_heart_woman_man:

I don’t have a favourite number, but I do have an unfavourite one… :four:
On the 30th May 2004 I surprisingly suffered a heart attack…Then on the 24/04/2014 I had another one…So I’m not looking forward to 2024…

Mine has always been 3 - no logical reason.
I just think it’s a nice number.

When I’m grouping things together, e.g. arranging plant pots, small ornaments, dishes on a table, I find groups of 3 more aesthetically pleasing than even numbers or larger groups.

68…I was living in the country in 1968 and I absolutely loved it. The freedom to go out and play, finding butterflies, discovering different plants etc. Everything was so interesting, I suppose we lose some of that sense of excitement and discovery over the course of time.

Also that year I’m sure I really began to enjoy listening to music on the radio, Leapy Lee, The Beatles, The Tremeloes, Engelbert Humperdinck, Herman’s Hermits to name but a few.

Happy days all round.

I’ve always been partial to 7 for some reason. Does anyone know why 6 is afraid of 7?

Because 7 8 9. :grin:

25 is my favorite. House we built , house number was 25. FIrst two numbers of our phone during that time was 25. I stayed in that home for 25 years (and two husbands came and went).
Seems natural to me…

50, because I’m on Over 50s chat, and have behaved myself, for so long, that has to be a favorite :icon_wink:
