Smelled a strange odour and realised I was witnessing yet another diaper changing incident (although lets not revist that).

The main purpose for resurrecting this thread is that I was woken from a deep slumber (after taking a few temazepam), in a start when I realised that there was a finger up my nostril. Yes - you guessed. One of the kids shoved a finger up my nose and woke me up.

I'm usually very tolerant, but told the father that he'd better control his child, and that it was completely inappropriate to allow them to pick the noses of other pax.
