Cotton Wool - I just hate it, makes my skin crawl.

re; the phobia about cotton wool - I didnt realise that anyone could be petrified of it, but many years ago (when I and my then colleagues were much younger) we heard that our boss hated cotton wool, so we wound it around the handle of the only door into the office, whilst he was out!!!!! he never came near the office for hours, and eventually rang and told us to take it off - we were horrible!

Can't stand thick electric wires or any kind of pipe in a dark place! Makes it difficult travelling on the underground - can't look out the window! Major problem is in offices or shops if a ceiling tile is removed for maintenance. I can't walk/sit under it or even look at it. Angela
