Irrational fears Page 2

I'm afraid of spiders. I'm pretty sure it comes from an incident that happened, when I was a kid. I was climbing up this big tree one day, around the corner form my house, and I suddenly realised I was absolutely covered in baby spiders, which had probably just hatched out of their egg that day, or a day or two earlier. I ran home screaming, and my Dad almost pissed himself laughing, as he wiped them off me.

F**king hell.
THAT is a proper reason.

I don't have one, apart from that they are Satan's creatures.

Okay... I've customised my road atlas with folded over numbered masking tape so's I can flip to the right pages with ease. Also I've highlighted the route in pink marker pen.

God, I sound really anal.

Good idea re: junctions ajp - I'll write them backwards on a piece of masking tape(I have a small amount left over) and stick them to my forehead so I can double check in my rear-view mirror at the appropriate moment.

Small but busy roundabouts.
And busy double roundabouts.
Making a right at busy roundabouts.
F**k it, let's just say roundabouts full stop. I shit them.

This might be ocd but i fear i've left the front door unlocked, i can be there trying the handle of the locked door for half an hour somedays, i just can't walk away.

Dogs. Well, I'm not scared of them. They just freak me out a bit. Does that still count? Horrible creatures!

Fairground rides and the dark! Seriously!

I used to have one of the dark..and I hate fairground rides :( Im also terrified I'll get stuck on the tube tomorrow on my way to central London :(

I take the Tube to and from work every day. The super-sensitive safety systems mean it's actually far more safe than it might appear.

Why are you heading into town anyway?

Sometimes I get stuck on YouTube for hours and hours.

I read a story about a 13-year-ols girl who got both of her feet chopped off, on a fairground ride, in America, a couple of months ago.

I sincerely hope you get pulled over for a random DUI test. Try explaining that one Laughing out loud

I'm back!!! I only got a little bit confused at on point (which resulted in me going round a roundabout twice) but apart from that I made it there and back in one piece!

Yay! :D
