The thing is, they're always just near Heathrow. I'm terrible with magpies! I try not to see them, especially if I'm taking a fl ight. If I see a toadstool or a mushroom I put a sweet under it, go round it three times and make a wish. I think there is something out there, but I don't know what it is because I'm quite a superstitious person. You can't let it affect you – it's in the eye of the beholder, isn't it?
