Never had a problem with these, hold the picture about a foot or so in front of you, focus on the centre of the picture and cross your eyes then slowly uncross them and it comes into focus....thats how I do it anyway.

Me too. I have a tiny squint and never gained 'fusion' which means my eyes work independantly from each other. 3D TV doesn't work on me either.

Easily see things as red/brown or green. I watched a match on the box recently from either France or Germany, and was quite convinced one of the teams was playing in green... it slowly dawned on me that it must be red, you know the sort of thing chants of allez les rouges, as opposed to vertes. The weird thing is once the perception is set that is what I see, so it literally switche d from green to red in my head.

Point taken. The chant thing was more an example of how in order to perceive the red/green colour spectrum, I need other signals.

So for example I know Town play in red at the CG, if they turned up in green I'd see it as red.

I know a referee who is colour blind.
If the two teams are in red & green then he only has direction of travel to go by when trying to differentiate.

They might have different coloured shorts/socks, or sponsors logo or lack thereof. He'll have a strategy for working it out.

Morphene (and its derivatives) has no effect on me so I have literally no form of painkiller available.

Also I can no longer drink enough to get pissed no matter how I try, I feel bloated and full before I actually get drunk.

That sounds a lot like liver damage on both counts!

Nah I hardly ever drink any more, probably once or twice a year at most nowadays, and since the cancer problem I have been avoiding it anyway.
