Former MemberWell you can blow your nose with hay fever or anything can't you? Even if I go out in the wet and cold, I blow my nose sometimes. What pisses me off, is that I don't feel the cold much, so I generally just wear a thin-ish top, and jeans or whatever, and if I had a pound for every time someone has said 'AREN'T YOU COLD?' I could retire now! It really irks me! [ more ]
