I've been told I do it slightly when prepping an engine on the FfR in the morning and it won't steam, and also by parents said that I do it as well.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with that, I'm sure a lot of us do it - it's when they start talking back to you that problems have set it, "isn't that right Ogwen?"

Swordbreaker would like to add that his old master used to chat every night.
