Things you didn't know about the bag : 1.Hugs

Ostomists may hug the wrong way. I've recently banged heads as I go for a left side to left side hug to avoid bag rustling.

    I guess hugging is just intuitive for you. Be a voyeur - nearly everyone hugs with their right cheek ( and side) touching the other persons right cheek ( and side). Break with convention and heads, noses, chins clash - even if you're trying to avoid your bag getting squashed. Maybe I need an 'Explain' Reaction Button?

    ah, cheek side! now i get it. i was imagining a left side to left side hug that had the sides of the BODY meeting, not the head, in a kind of dosey doe with your partner hug! i can empathise with the head shuffle - it happens to me when i get cold sores and people persist in trying to grab me for some kind of hug or london kissy thing (this has to be the worst thing about london - all the kissing). btw 'i guess hugging is just intuitive for you' do you not remember me?! how those who know me laughed at your statement ;-)

    I better watch out for the dosey doh thing at the LGBT History month Same Sex Dancing event!

    You had better watch out - standard ballroom hold is right side to right side. Still, the music should cover any rustling!

    I hope my partner's not too fazed.
