Wearing a black leather biker outfit on my Suzuki Hayabusa with a dew drop on the end of my nose just wouldn't look right.

Having my chauffeur lean around passing me a kleenex just to keep the upholstery dry in my Bentley is something I also attempt to avoid, hence a good old fashioned cotton hanky!

During the TV coverage of the royal jubilee debacle I recall a close up of Phil the Greek removing a nose drip onto a finger of his white kid glove.

So maybe they are part human

You've cracked it, MargaretR!
It's the genes from our Royal ancestors which cause it!

the question was always asked by mother or grandmother....never a teacher.
I think they assumed that this question had been asked prior to you leaving the house.

Sorry for the misunderstanding, circumstances could almost be as bad as reading a local newspapers display of the news then being harassed because you thought they had attempted to be accurate.

Last time I saw a cow defecating it was a very quiet event.

The noise only started when someone stepped in it.
