    Just concentrate on their prettiness ;)

    I never do. I'm a utilitarian at heart. I have actually bought new boots because the soles have disintegrated on the old ones - how pretty they are never entered the equation. How reliable, strong, and useful they are does.

    Bit like my women, except my boots don't have to be intelligent with GSOH on top.

    And I tend not to have to break-in my women either... ;)
    How was lunch Z? and was this a date?

    It was good and filling - casserole + dumpling. Wasn't a date - twas my mother...
    Other stuff has got in the way this weekend, dinner out with DS,

    It's a small world. I did that too - just from the other side...
    visiting friends,

    Any slander to report?
    footie, fireworks and visits to the gym and the envitable taxi service that parents provide of a weekend.

    Make him walk... :p
    I have done a few hours each day though but ended up asleep on the sofa about 11pm last night, so rock n roll me :o

    I ended up asleep around about 8 after my friday disaster, so I must be even more rock and roll...

    What have you been doing? Is this a steamer for the stripping or a steamer for the ironing?

    I'll send you a PM. Though it's a bit long for this time of night - said the actress to the Bishop...

    And in other news, I've been looking at a rental house which promises me a "Large Gordon" - why does that remind me of Lula?

    Today? Cleaning, ironing, gym, visiting folks (walked both ways). So steamer for the stripping, I turned it on and did a wee bit, don't think the rest will take too long now I can use the steamer for it :D. I think I can see the light at the end of the tunnel, although papering could be a whole other story...

    Twas indeed!

    Gordons always makes me think of Lula too:D.

    Watching Alan Carr, he just made me laugh out loud - WWJD? The Macarena:rotfl::rotfl:?
