I watch so many subtitled movies that it becomes second nature. Some time back I turned away from the TV to stir something on the cooker and was surprised for a moment that I could not still understand what was happening on TV. I had forgotten that the film was in Spanish, and I had been "reading" it rather than listening to it!
Things that show you the sort of place I live in: I had a conversation with a neighbour a few minutes ago. When I told him that I work with computers he replied "Yeah, I used to do that. I used to steal server boards!"
