    WM still isn't finished... should have put it on quick wash... and also realised it was only on 30 so have turned it up to 50 for the remainder of the wash (it was some not particularly dirty sheets & towels, but I put powder in, so it at least needs a hottish rinse).

    Thank you letters etc. nearly all written! I'll try to get the last of them done before going to bed... just the one for my brother's fiancee to do (and she's a really good letter writer, so I have to make an effort!).
  • Thought you might all like this... Pass it on to any man you want to start understanding why you're p155ed off..... (and for OJ just in case you ever get the same comments...)
    (and we wonder why men don't get us???)

    Fine: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
    Five Minutes: If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.
    Nothing: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes.. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine.
    Go Ahead: This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!
    Loud Sigh: This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to # 3 for the meaning of nothing.)
    That's Okay: This is one of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
    Thanks: A woman is thanking you, do not question, or Faint. Just say you're welcome. (I want to add in a clause here - This is true, unless she says 'Thanks a lot' - that is PURE sarcasm and she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say 'you're welcome' ... that will bring on a 'whatever').
    Whatever: Is a women's way of saying F*cK YOU!
    Don't worry about it, I got it:Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking 'What's wrong?' For the woman's response refer to # 3.

    Emptied bins while making hot water bottles, and the WM is about to finish, so I'll just wait up to bung it in the TD and reload...

    ... and therefore have an updated list :D
