    If money is an issue, you could try sleeping with your missus. MrsC is extraordinarily cheap.

    I've tried to tell her to up her rate, but she said she is targetting a 'certain demographic of punter'. Whatever that means.

    She asks everyone she meets?

    I regretfully lied when asked, her proposal took me with complete and utter surprise.

    A guy that came to do some work on our house "offered" nicely if we wanted to do a bit of swinging with him and his wife, the bits I could see of him looked a bit like Ron Jeremy, I was worried the rest might be the same, so I said no.

    OMG Even I know who he is. He is double jointed so can react to parts others can't? Bleugh.

    OK confession time. There is a bloke called Bendover who makes movies.

    We haven't seen him for about 5 years but it used to be a good day when he brought a brood in for a shopping expedition.
    He was always very civil to me but I was def invisible....just served the stuff, took the money as you do. Nice girls too. Everyone is someones daughter remember.

    LIR.....no one ever asked for a duo.:o
    OH used to get a lot of offers when in shop...but older types mainly. I used to have to spray my tail now and again but he is so lovely...he used to say 'why have sausage when you already have steak'.
    May have only said it to stop me getting miffed mind. Who Knows?

    Yes I thought so, he did a very good job though and the OH has had him back to do some jobs around the house while I have been working away.

    OK that bits not true :rotfl: but the original bit was :D
