Now that is funny, mneme. I can see his face now. I have a habit of being too hard on myself, but it works out humorously in the end.

Don't be so hard on yourself johnmacnab.. I once described, with thumb and forefinger slightly apart, the width of the grouting gap between the tiles, when the nice man in the hardware store asked me what size of mix I needed. I had the good grace to laugh when I realised why he looked so astonished.

All the best with your car inspection, BrightIrish. I still haven't got mine back - perhaps today.

Yes Pat, fixated is a word, and I was definitely fixated. I am whistling a happy tune as I wait for word from the garage. This is the second day they've had the car and my whistle is drying up.

Fixated. is that a word?
It's not necessary to beat yourself up. If you knew what flubs and schlubs everyone else made while you were focused on size and tubes and cleavage... well, you might just find yourself whistling a happy tune.
