The 47 Society

[Moose423956]

I will be turning 47 on Sunday, or thirty-seventeen as I like to call it.

Anyway, someone has pointed out the 47 Society to me. Then I noticed that I'd written this in an email a couple of days ago:

I've just ordered 47 photos for printing via your website....

Spooky!

Anyone else got an interesting 47-related anecdote to share?

Yes. I will be 47 in quite a few years from now.
How spooky is that.

Football and cricket are the oldest popular team sports in the world, and both are 11-a-side games. And what are 4 and 7 added together?

I'm 47 Friday week. I have booked a table at Bofinger in Paris where I shall be getting royally drunk on vintage champagne and doing my best to strip the North Atlantic coast of it's autumnal stock of shellfish.

I assume you will have a large chested prostitute keeping you from getting bored at the table. Party in style.

Alas it's also my wedding anniversary as well as my birthday, still; can't be helped.

42 + 3 - 9 + 5 + 6 = 47

spooky this.

when I was 47, I was on a bus going into Liverpool. Yes, it was the No. 47 bus.
One of my fellow passengers was crying and said that he was being booted out of NASA because his program had lost 47 astronauts and no one else would volunteer. Imagine how delighted he was when I agreed to go through the rigorous training and fly to Mars the following month.
On the way to Mars the computer went mad and tried to steal my DVD collection but I fought back using human ingenuity by forcing a compressed air cylinder into its mouth and shooting it with my rifle.

Then I woke up. It had all been a dream.
