I think I can guess which one you mean Islandmaid, lol.
I got my own back at work today, big time.
I have a very smug colleague, she curls her nose up at me and most of the rest of the staff.
My DD2 was 8 months pregnant when she got married, she and her husband have had some tough times, they now have 4 children but are still together.
My DD1 is divorced, both of these situations received the curled up nose from Mrs Smug.
A few years ago Mrs Smug's son managed to get his GF pregnant, they were both 17, ok so stuff happens.
This weeks the nose has been curled at me because my L&M is not well, Mrs Smug's perfect husband is a real man and doesn't suffer from stress, well bully for him.
This morning Mrs Smug was distraught she discovered her unmarried and still living at home DD is pregnant, I'm afraid I couldn't resist.
I said 'Wow, 2 grandchildren without the benefit of clergy, you must be so proud!'
Ok I know it was !!!!!y and uncalled for, but I felt so much better for it!Chin up, Titus out.0 -
HESTER tell her the story of 'Towser' who pulled faces at all his friends and one day while he was doing it the wind changed direction and he was stuck like it forevermore!0

Which reminds me, a few months ago I bought myself some Rigger boots, these are not some form of erotic clothing, they are workmans boots and are difficult to find in smaller sizes.
My L&M happened to mention that he hadn't seem me wearing the boots, so I went upstairs and put them on with just a pair of black holdups and then clumped downstairs to show him!Chin up, Titus out.0 -
YAY a kitchen party, love it!0
