I can certainly sympathise. My driving instructor is one of the most gorgeous women I have ever met. This tiny little vision of pixie loveliness, but for some reason sat in such a way that her knee was grazing the gear stick.

you know on a road crossing where you press a button for the green man to come on? Not one of the rubbish new ones with the green man lit on the display, the old ones with 'WAIT' which lights up when you press it?

If you put your hand under the bottom of the unit you can find a dial which I believe if you turn diminishes the time you have to wait for the green man to come on. If you turn it it sort of feels like you're turning a mechanism.

Anyone else noticed that?

This is a QotW comment I don't need a conversation to know the colour of your eyes Dok!
I can see them in my mind's eye!

And mine aren't green, they're mostly brownyhazelly.

Swan *counts* I've been smoking about 15 years too, on and off. I use Becotide every day but last time I gave up I was off it and Ventolin within a week. And I could breathe just fine.

That's something to look forward to.

Ancrenne I fail at remembering eye colours :(

It's normally one of the things I take note of as well. Eyes are the window of the soul, so they say.

Smoking I've been doing that for about 24 years now, and I still only cough when I'm ill, I must be doing something right.
