Somewhere, out there, a duck is watching you.

Ever heard of "anatidaephobia"? Nor had I until just now when we were talking about Halloween and what gives people the creeps. For those that don't know, it's the irrational yet quite specific fear that somewhere, out there, a duck is watching you. Of course, it is.

It turns out there's a whole load of phobias being nursed here at Loaf HQ. Our Rob is decidedly uneasy in the presence of stickers - particularly the ones you get on fruit. This condition has a name: "pittakionophobia". Another Loafer suffers from "koumpounophobia": a fear of buttons.

Go on, what irrational fear keeps you awake at night? We promise not to tell…

Scribble your answer down and send to [email protected] or stick it on our Facebook or Twitter feed using #freakyphobias by Monday 3rd November and you might just win yourself a pair of Hiccup cushions to hide behind. We'll choose our favourite and announce on our blog the next day.

Best of luck. And beware out there…

Love,

Charlie & the Loafers x
