It's even cheaper just to get a virtual one in your mouth!

Hitting ctrl and F5 together gives a forced refresh of the page which means (apparently) that you get the latest version.

I see no rose??..... Metro-sexuals have no need of superficial symbols of lurve anyway ;-)

My OH will have to make to do with a bottle of Badedas shower gel.....selfishly purchased as it makes him smell nice.

What's this thing with metro-sexuals, anyway? I'm curious. I am aware of the phenomenon but they're not high profile out in the provinces and the credit crunch may well lead to their extinction. :rotfl: :rotfl:

Actually, I didn't mean all that. Rather, why is it one of your favourite terms, must be a fashionista thing?

(Sorry, it's Friday night. I've had a glass of wine. And I haven't even wrapped up my something-sexual's valentines pressie yet!)

Lots of weekend metrosexuals out here in the sticks. DH is sort of metrosexual. He wears pink non-ironically, for example, and will buy 'feminine hygein products' when needed, and doesn't need to be told there is a mandatory side purchase of carbs or chocolate with them. I have to say, its not a term I associate myself with: I consider these people simply men with nothing to prove.

Oh, for you, you mean - not for him. Yeah, mine will do all that quite happily. He's a bit thin on the flowers and choccy buying front though. :undecided Still, we're probably too many years down the line. Think I should make him work a bit harder??

There you go Treliac ....LIR put it better than I could.

Also men who can converse with women just the same as they converse with men. If you had the hump over something, M Man will ask what is wrong. Non M Man will ask if it is time of the month.

My OH is a hunky type and wears candy pink cashmere.
