Haha. Thanks. I learnt something new today.Fee Verte wrote:This is sometimes called the "Einstein shower" syndrome. Meaning that your mind when involved in a routine, such as ablutions or excercise, is prone to answer questions or offer insight.
I also tend to get the same sort of inspiration when flying. I guess you make a virtue out of being cooped up in an airplane for a few hours. Time for me to book more short-haul flights on budget airlines...

I still think that it is a question of ritual, as with excercising, part of the brain is engaged with the mechanical function and the other is at liberty to resolve and perhaps inspire? Time to take a shower
