Hi Linda!
Glad to see you're settling in with your enviable job at the towers! Couldn't resist commenting on the newspaper observation.....I've noticed that newspapers are never as interesting if I'm reading my own...in fact I never buy them, and rarely even bother with the free ones, but if someone else is reading one on the train, I can't resist....suddenly an article about a subject I normally have no interest in becomes compulsive reading.....perhaps it's just the excitement of knowing that at any moment the paper's owner may turn the page! I can tell this habit really annoys people, but I can't help myself!
Keep it up.
It's an intriguing and fascinating hobby and I'm glad to know I'm not the only one, though I get the feeling I take it a bit further than I should, judging by the irritated expressions of my fellow passengers.......oh well, I'm afraid it's beyond my control now: Aaaaargh!

It's a dreadful habit to get into. I don't read newspapers either, except on the train. Then I'm suddenly fascinated by what Posh Spice is up to. Very, very sad...
