Hmmm, first time i've heard of that - very strange.

If you remove the key - and the ignition lights stay on, try bump starting it (although shorting the starter is safer if you know what your doing). Basically it's a quick way of finding out if your ignition switch is shagged. If the car starts and the key is in your pocket - it's shaged - but this is highly unlikely.

I'd be more interested in checking the main relay - if any of the contacts are stuck, which is very common on older cars - it will cause all sorts of strange things to happen.

I'm sure there's lots of thing to check but i just can't think of them.
Try those, if you're still having problems, i'll hopefully have thought of some more things to check.
