    Ah, it's wonderful! Another couple who share a toothbrush. I thought we might be the only ones.

    Well, we have a head for it each...so it's just the motorised but we share. And of course, he only uses it when he is here...so we should be a couple who don't share so we can both use it week round!

    I think I got the job although it is hard to say. I got an email today from the woman that interviewed me asking for a 'catch up' in a coffee shop on the ground floor. Either she fancies me (she is onl human after all so it's highly likely) or there's going to be a job offer waiting.


    Well done!


    Hope you also get the job ;)

    :D

    Oh Ok that sounds acceptable.

    I am a bit OCD about toothbrushes. They must out of direct line of fire of the toilet, I clean them once a month in a sonic cleaner. Caps on toothbrushes is a no no as that encourages germs to breed, so they have to be in the open air, but preferably clean air!

    I am pleased that you avoided the all-too-common ending to these videos:-
    1. Westie falls through the ice
    2. You go to Westie's aid
    3. You drown
    4. Westie ignores your attempts to help, struggles to the shore, shakes himself off, looks around, and wonders why Wheezy is no longer in sight and has apparently wandered off
    Yep if an alien saw our short videos that get on the telly they'd assume on Earth the gravity comes in unpredictable gusts and catches us by surprise.:D

    Yes, of course it's acceptable.....that's why they sell it with different colour heads/connectors. :D


    I agree about the clean air, but tbh while I would not share a toothbrush my tongue goes in his mouth enough, and vice versa. Most couples share all kinds of bodily fluids so while the filth of someone's teeth doesn't appeal, I can think of less appetising things to put in my mouth.

    Next you are going to tell me that you never share chewing gum. :)
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    I don't recall having shared chewing gum. But something is telling me perhaps that's not so. (step into the world of impaired memory and broken brains) The thing that's confusing me is that I seem to recall reading that chewing gum doesn't so much lose it's taste very quickly but rather we become immune to it. I cannot believe I haven't tried that out, so I might have done. Fwiw, I am not a big gum chewer though....I think I last had gum last winter or the summer before that in my dad's car because he always has some in his car and every now and again that seems enjoyable.

    :rotfl:

    Actually, I was expecting westie to go through the ice as it was very thin, but it didn't happen :(
    It was undeep anyway, just a couple of inches.

    I think we had the toothbrush conversation before.
    Consensus was that sharing brushes is yuk yuk, sharing base and swapping heads is just a little bit yuk.
