    A friend of mine used the rhythm method as contraception. She got 3 children really close together now :D

    The RE teacher at my catholic school used to say that sticking a paracetamol between the knees was the best contraceptive.

    Ha ha! That takes me back. The advice we were given at school when going out with a boy on a date was to carry with you the following:

    The yellow pages (to put between you when sitting side by side)
    A sharp pin (to stick into him if he tries to touch you)
    2p (so you can phone mum/dad to come and rescue you if things got awkward).

    Yeah 2p, I'm old...

    Don't modern teenagers get told to have some condoms? How times change...

    Sorry, off topic and still not much use to Lydia.
  • The best OS style contraception I can think of is firstly to borrow some teenagers for a couple of weeks, or, if that fails I can send you details of my Ex, that would put anyone off for life! :D

    My Gran told me if you have your period in the week before your wedding, you can't get pregnant on your honeymoon :confused:

    No idea how that works, but she concieved my Mam on hers!

    At my first wedding she was thrilled when I had a period in the week before the wedding, and when I didn't get pregnant, she said "see I told you so". Errr that'll be because we used contraception though :rolleyes:
    Here I go again on my own....

    My Nan told me to put newspaper on a boy's lap before sitting there. I never did work that one out!
    The ability of skinny old ladies to carry huge loads is phenomenal. An ant can carry one hundred times its own weight, but there is no known limit to the lifting power of the average tiny eighty-year-old Spanish peasant grandmother.

    The buffet method !

    Stand the woman on a small buffet and assume a posterior presentation.

    As passion increases kick the buffet from under her as the " vinegar stroke " approaches . LOL !

    DH and I have found the perfect contraceptive, he now works nights so we are never in bed together at the same time :)

    He should never have bothered getting the snip last year, this is far more effective.
