We all have them. Space bubbles. They shrink and grow, depending on where you are. On the Victoria Line approaching Victoria Station at 08:15 on a Monday morning, for example, I'd suggest your bubble (along with everyone elses) is skin-tight. Stand on an open, wide, empty beach however, and your bubble expands to the horizon. Unlike the necessarily more "tolerant" skin-tight bubble, should someone, or something, venture into your space bubble in this enlarged state, even hundreds of yards away, you may well find yourself at least mildly irritated. Returning to the bubble in it's skin-tight form, some people have the uncanny ability to invoke it even when they're not on the Victoria Line at peak time. Indeed, in an uncluttered living room for example, they seem intent on climbing into your bubble and setting up camp. There are various defense strategies. Some of these are odour-free.
