    Oooh, have a lovely day - what a fab daughter you have! Got any tips for me on how to bring up little girls?

    Just thought I'd share this with you all..I hope you don't mind!!
    My 20 year old daughter has been around this afternoon and has booked and paid for me to have my nails done..those lovely false ones:o :o:o I told her not to be daft but she said "you spoilt me when I was younger..so...I'm going to spoil you"...
    I was so happy I could cry...how sweet is that....I've never had my nails done before...
    This is a big thing for me as I've just had an hysterectomy and am off work for 6 months ..so...I really appreciate this...

    Aww, that is really nice of her.

    I just hope any daughter of mine will do the same for me. Hang on, I forgot I won't be having any (being a friend of Dorothy's and all that); it's a pity really, I fancy getting my nails done for nothing! :)
    :p I'm the only gay in this forum :p

    She is currently trying to type with her elbows, I suspect, due to her nails being too long and too fab to risk damage.

    Elbow typing takes some considerable time to master, so she may be away from her keyboard for some time :D
