    What Religion is Your Bra?

    A man walked into the ladies department of Myer's and shyly walked up to the woman behind the counter and said, 'I'd like to buy a bra for my wife.''What type of bra?' asked the clerk. 'Type?' inquires the man, 'There's more than one type?'
    ' Look around,' said the saleslady, as she showed a sea of bras in every shape, size, colour and material imaginable. 'Actually, even with all of this variety, there are really only four types of bras to choose from.' Relieved, the man asked about the types. The saleslady replied: 'There are the Catholic, the Salvation Army, the Presbyterian, and the Baptist types. Which one would you prefer?' Now totally befuddled, the man asked about the differences between them. The Saleslady responded, 'It is all really quite simple... The Catholic type supports the masses; The Salvation Army type lifts the fallen;The Presbyterian type keeps them staunch and upright;The Baptist type makes mountains out of molehills. Have you ever wondered why A, B, C, D, DD, E, F, G, and H are the letters used to define bra sizes? If you have wondered why, but couldn't figure out what the letters stood for, it is about time you became informed!
    (A} Almost Boobs...
    {B} Barely there...
    {C} Can't complain!...
    {D} Dang!...
    {DD} Double dang!...
    {E} Enormous!...
    {F} Fake...
    {G} Get a Reduction...
    {H} Help me, I've fallen and I can't get up!...
    Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY

    So far today I've
    • Stripped and changed all beds (waiting for our bedding to be dry!)
    • WM x 2
    • Made dough for 4 loaves - on its first rise
    • Phoned up a magazine to cancel subscription - I'd forgotten about it until an e-mail popped into my inbox saying Paypal had paid!
    • Printed off passport forms x 3 for childrens' South African passports so DH can apply for them when he goes next year
    • Started a £2 coin saving tin - £4 already :j:D
    Need to
    • go to Post Office to cash cheque
    • go shopping with proceeds from said cheque :D
    • pick up passport form for DH (or he's not going anywhere next year :rotfl:)
    • make pizza dough for dinner
    • tidy up kitchen
    • vac round
    • dust everywhere
    • remove all 11 badges from DS's cubs uniform and sew them onto his new one :eek: (got nearly a fortnight before it's needed so I'll pace myself :rotfl:)
    Think I'll do the vaccing and dusting and go to the PO later when I go to pick up DS from school.

    Valli...loving the bra joke!

    I really need a shower to wash my hair but Mr G is asleep. Thinking about plaiting it and sticking a hat on and hoping that no-one notices how manky it is :rotfl:

    I was going to do soup for lunch but I think I'll do it for tea instead and do some bread with it.

    Right back to cards...this is taking ages!

    Blind man has been and gone. I've vacuumed two bedrooms and the landing and vacuumed hallway and kitchen. Hung out six bits of washing then looked at the sky and got them in again. I left out the duster I handwashed though, doesn't matter if that gets rained on.

    Dinner cooking now.

    Dusty, you'll have to give that kitten lots of extra cuddles today - purely medicinal of course. Serena, I'm sorry about your day out :(

    I've done really well with my paperwork piles! Just a few bits left to action and the rest can stay in the tray until I have a bit more time.

    Just waiting for my Jacket potatoe to cook so will do my online orders now.

    Afternoon, just having tea and toast then will go and pick LO up from afterschool and drop her off at inlaws so i can go to work.
    Thanks anyway Lil_me, wasnt sure if you would have used it or not. Its just a really annoying programme that i really need unfortunately. Did get some more of my project done this morning at uni so i'm getting there. It doesnt have to be in til next friday but i want it out the way. Hope DS is on the mend, he must be feeling better if he is eating brownies.
    Need to go iron my uniform and feed the rabbit(and not get those 2 mixed up...)
    My stupid bird has laid an egg and has spent the past 2 days sitting on it, she will be very disappointed when nothing comes out of it:p
    The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.
