People used to think I was 'crossing myself' (religious style) when taxying out to take off, because I would touch my forehead, then my belt line,
then left of my chest then right of my chest then kiss my thumb....
Then one of the guys said to me "Are you some sort of religious nut?"
I said "No, I was just checking I had everything ....
spectacles,
testicles,
wallet and
watch.... and I keep catching my thumb on the phucking pen sticking out of my pocket"
