Some people have beliefs, some people have none.
But my granny was very, very sick at the time.
She should have died before Christmas.
Her kidneys had failed.
And this was the 13th of January and she passed away on the 13th, Friday the 13th.
And I genuinely thought she was taking CiarΓ‘n's place.
So kind of give us a lift.
