    Is anyone watching the Wright Stuff? It's saying that in America good looking, intelligent women can be paid £30,000 for donating eggs!
  • MFD I can't really relate to that either, sorry. I think if you'd been on the phone and asked a sultry "did you miss me? ;) " type question and he replied he'd missed you both I'd feel like that, but not over a text.

    Would be worse if he hadn't missed you!!

    Aha - I think you have hit the nail on the head, I was trying to be a little bit suggestive so his reply including the baby makes me feel a little rejected.

    No wonder men can't work us women out ;) I can't even work myself out.

    Now, who's for a trip to America ;):D

    That's good looking intelligent women... I recon I'd get a fiver for one of mine lol....

    SJ, Caitlyn rolled of my sofa and bed countless times... I had cushions down my side of the bed to catch her and she just rolled off hubby's side instead... And then once she was big enough to climb on and off properly, she threw herself off headfirst instead!
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    MFD, I agree you were after a bit of the old text foreplay, and he went and slipped the baby in there like a forties housewife would slip the baby in the middle of the marital bed so's not to let him get ideas.

    Text back and say 'you were well in there and you blew it, I was going to take dirty pics and everything!' that'll sort him!

    But your hubby is a man! A little bit suggestive is not enough, he won't have understood ;)

    And I'm just checking flights now lol (not really!)

    Coincidentally I just filled out my ESTA :rotfl:

    I'd get annoyed too if I was being saucy and got ignored - and more annoyed if he hadn't noticed I was being suggestive.

    Poll for you lovely ladies - how do I tell my parents we're not coming to them for Christmas?

    Not "we would like to", but "we have decided we will be". Don't leave room for debate :)

    Yeah men need a clear 'I'm horny' BAM! Hit over the head with a hammer, type naughtyness.

    SS, uhm... why are you not going (is it kind to tell them straight or is it 'we just don't like you and you smell'?)

    :rotfl: Quick household poll says we prefer the first one - but will go with the second :)

    Tia we're not going for all the reasons MFD said, plus they have a dog that can't be trusted around small children and they very begrudgingly kept it out of the way last year but were really obnoxious about it, Christmas was filled with them doing passive-aggressive stuff like feeding stuff that was being prepared for a future meal to the dog and as we were leaving my mother commented on how awful it was the whole time. And when we visited in July they were really difficult about coming to see us - we rearranged two visits to suit them and they didn't turn up to one planned meeting.
