    Ah, you'd be fine then!

    Its funny, I've always found healthcare workers to be pretty relaxed about germs etc. when they're off the clock. I spend enough time on infection control at work, I'll take my chances at home!

    You're probably right about that! I'm a graphic designer though and just happen to work in the NHS. :D

    Really shouldn't be watching Obsessive Compulsive Cleaners on TV now, those houses make my skin crawl. My son is sat here 'urghhing' as well.

    I used to be quite relaxed about germs, but these days I'm not at all. The infection control bods have completed their scheduled brainwashing on me quite successfully. I see germs everywhere now, I drive my husband nuts with my hand washing and gelling particularly around the general public. Things like shopping trolleys (ever see those get cleaned?) or door handles, lift buttons, escalator handles, those machines you type your pin code in (I could go on all night here). I spent so long being trained to hand wash before and after every contact with a patient that it's just ingrained now. I seem to gel a lot around kids too, germy little things they are, I do allow them on the bed though :rotfl:
