Or if they have an ear infection
Nose twitching and ears burning. In Singapore it's eyelid twitching if I'm not wrong, though sneezing is used quite a lot too.

Will you participate in Mr MTF? I'm definitely going to nominate you.

Never seen Big Berd live. Is he as gentle with the tennis ball as he appears on TV?

What do you mean 49% chance of a good summer? What's a bad summer?
Now that I've seen London for what it is, I will revise my previous assertion and say that I like it a lot. Definitely love the night buses - I missed the last tube on the day of the WTF final cos I was waiting for Roger and he came out past midnight, and I was panicking about how to get back when I remembered the amazing thing that is the Night Bus.

People who visit me often say their nose itches after they arrive -- because I don't dust often enough.

Yes, I know them, they've got some good stuff. Tough to say what I think is their best song but Life in Tokyo, Adolescant Sex and Quiet Life are probably my three favourites.....
Clan of Xymox, check out the songs Louise, Muscoviet mosquito,Stranger and Jasmine and Rose
