Re: Various Fears
I used to have a phobia about dentists, couldn't sleep for days before a dentists appointment.
Thankfully I am now cured. Bought a set of sparkling white teeth from ebay.

mine doesn't knock, bangs the door open stomps in and yells, just like a police raid; dogs go berserk and take ten minutes to calm down, volume goes up again soon as she starts talking. I take off upstairs and follow her yak quite distinctly from up there.

I used to suffer from knockerphobia but was miraculously cured when the barmaid in the George & Dragon was replaced by a barman.

George was not the problem, it was his wife the Dragon.
Then there is alcofhobic reaction.
When full as a boot you keel over.
