    I've given Women up for Lent.
    Liverpool is one of the wonders of Britain,
    What it may grow to in time, I know not what.

    I've been married to O/H for 42 years and he's still my best friend.

    None of us are perfect so we can't expect our OHs to be perfect!
    Sometimes it helps to have a good old moan about the people we love, makes it easier to go home with all that rubbish off our chests and be the loving partners we want to be!

    I've been with my OH for 3 years, been married for 3 months. There are times when it is hard, but nothing worthwhile is ever easy. We love each other a lot, and work hard on our relationship, and while everyday isn't a walk in the park, when it comes down to it, we are happy.
    Sometimes our light goes out but is blown into flame by another human being. Each of us owes deepest thanks to those who have rekindled this light.

    Yep, celebrated my 25th wedding anniversary last year. Didn't even like him when we met, but we ended up married 3 months later. Heading for 26 years now.

    What is wrong with that? I don't do it myself but I know several people who do.

    Haha, I had a bad experience when I was younger, I did it myself when I was about 14 BUT...... never used a towel :eek: I created a iron shaped piece of artwork in my mums carpet and covered it by pushing over a cabinet slighty. She never noticed....not while I was living there anyway but she moved houses last year and must have seen it!!!:D Im too old to be told off now anyway:rotfl:

    Think the above accident scarred me somewhat!!!

    My mum dropped her iron on the carpet and burnt an iron shape. She was livid and not very impressed by my suggestion that she just do more burns in a circles all over the rest of the carpet to make big brown flowers.
