Costumes: Nat wore toy ladders and mirrors and suchlike about her person; Daniel came as a footless rabbit (think about it); and Katie was a fortune teller.

The Conversation Pit with Nat: The topic du jour was 'What are you superstitious about?' Katie claimed she wasn't superstitious at all, but then confessed to wishing 'Chewy on ya boot' to opposition goal-kickers at the football. Listener contributions included avoiding putting shoes on the bed, and throwing a pinch of salt over your left shoulder to ward off evil.

Katie's Clutch Purse: Explanations on the origins of popular superstitions - here is a good link for anyone interested in reading more.

Daniel's Cocktail Menu: How to make a Witch's Brew, Warm Witch's Blood, Simple Charm, Black Magic and Lucky Seven.
