      A thread devoted to the gentle art of
      - wait for it -
      ‘a roll on the drums - a fanfare (but quietly)’
      Hugology.”.
      Let’s face it - Hugs are Perfectly Pleasant!
      A few examples:

      With this type of hug there may be a ‘hugger’ and a ‘huggee’ - so it is very important to take turns at being Woodstock, so don’t be greedy!

      Here we see the classic bear hug....

      .....but be careful....
      all may not be what it seems....

      This particular hug was spotted in a garden in a holiday home in Holland, and represents a “we’ve been together for so many lovely years hug, and - guess what - we’re still hugging.”

      Here we see a doctor and patient hug.
      (ie. he’s trying it on....most women are aware of this type of hug.....and know exactly how to rebuff it....however...I suspect some are a bit disappointed if they don’t get one....just sayin’)

      And here, a quite beautiful pussycat hug,
      from two of my babies.

      Please feel free to add any favourite hugs to this collection.
      Yes, I know it’s all a bit silly,
      but I like “silly.”

      Yes, that's a familiar scenario (though luckily not with my GP, super awkward!). As for disappointment, well that depends entirely on the identity of the potential hugger.
