>>I know of one squire in anohter kingdom who is so insistent upon holding doors for ladies that he will slap their hands out of the way if they reach for it first.<<

Actually, this bings up an intersting question.
Do people stand around waiting for someone to open the door before they'll go in or out of a room or somthing?
I have the habbit of purposily holding the door for a person, and there's only like say 2 or 3 other people around, but as soon as I get the door open, people just liek jump out from behind bushes and from teh tops of trees ad crawl out from under rocks or jsut step sideways out of other dememsions just to come throughthe newely opened door, retaining me there for some time, until I forget why it was I wanted to go in or out, and then they all just disappear again.
Is this something that just happens to me, or is it a common accurance?

Always,
Tristan
