Reidy's Bottle Of Grecian
The Unobstructed View
A lot of people are quite familiar with one of cricket' superstitions, being that it helps standing on one leg when the score reaches 111. We call it The Nelson, which you would also get with other multiples like 222 and 333.
Some people believe that the only way to counteract something bad happening on a Nelson number is to get your feet off the ground. You could just lift your feet off the pavilion floor if you weren't in the middle, but the umpire (being on the field of play) will sometimes just jump or hop!
so thats that, as i'm on a nelson.....post 9,999 you all have to hop or raise your feet off the ground until i get off it, could be a while as i think of a memorable one for 10k.
in the meantime keep those feet raised cos if they touch the ground you'll be cursed i tell ta, your feet will become redhot burning if they touch down before my post, and every time you walk home in the dark you shall plough a furrow through shogdite and unwittingly trawl it through your house.
here's some other nelsons...
