I just had a free lunch at Bank - I'm thinking we could all have one at the same place for the NP xmas bash?

Pfft .... only if it's a free lunch and I'm collected/returned.

One of dh's clients is kicking off about him having a four day weekend booked in this week. DH has just called to ask how bad I'd feel about doing the meetings we have tomorrow alone. . That's ok, if we can have the rest of the weekend...

I don't know whether I am meant to cook for tonight or not now.....

My son is canteen prefect. I'm guessing you'd have liked that job more

We didn't have those at my school ... in fact, we had no prefects.

I'd not want to be a canteen prefect - it'd probably get in the way of my special attempts at timing in order to be able to get seconds.

Have you ever considered a toyboy

Only if he can cope with 5 dogs, erratic working hours and a slight propensity to get excited at the sight of the new Volvo FH. I fear I'm limiting my possibilites already.:p

Wheezy, I haven't had one either, but they sound quite irreponsible and therefore fun!

Bugslet.....not very rebellious, but maybe you could just have a new livery done for your fleet and do the drivers colours...have the most stylish fleet in the world.

Make them hats.

My BiL and Sil got matching Harleys a few years back. Since tradeed them in for 1 motorbike and a sidecar

I remember being aged 5-7 or so, dad had a scooter and sidecar. He'd taken me shopping, to buy an ironing board I think, which went into the sidecar - and I had to stand up on the running boards of the scooter, between his arms, while he drove us 2 miles home.

There are no photos of it and I've no idea what model it was, but it'd have been a bit like this: http://www.scooter-sidecars.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/specs1_large.jpg

I never had a mid-life crisis. Should I be worried?

They're for people wealthy enough to afford them .... it just means you're too poor to be able to afford to buy halves of bitter and try to chat up girls at the local pub every night.

I'm sure CK can send one of his limos for free.

I'm really not that poor, but my wife won't let me.

Fridays are okay for me. DW usually likes me to help prepare for Friday Night (with a capital N), but she'll cope for one night.

How do you prepare for Friday Night?

Is that code for "kinky sex starts at 5pm prompt"?
