doug Posted July 5, 2003 Report Share Posted July 5, 2003 Why do people say eye sight and not ear hearing? Surely we should use sight and hearing? ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter e Posted July 5, 2003 Report Share Posted July 5, 2003 Don't know, Doug. But for the same reason that we get "in" the car but get "on" the bus or train, I guess. :blink: Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter e Posted July 5, 2003 Report Share Posted July 5, 2003 Doug's not bored, Nel. But you, me, popeye and powerless are, sitting there waiting for a post to reply to. On a Saturday night, too.Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doug Posted July 5, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2003 Not bored Nel, just a bit tired. 6.5 miles this morning, then mowed the lawn, lunched, turned over a compost bunker, pruned another part the the never ending hedge, re-set the 2 humane mouse traps - we are plagued with them at the moment - since the demise of Harry the cat from next door. So I'm away up the wooden hill before I start to wonder about other mysteries of life, 64 and everything else. :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
