    There once was a friday night party..
    with limericks they were oh so arty..
    So full of smut and lots of big butts
    and Z the resident Smarty :D

    I'd deny that I'm a Smartie
    Especially when there's a party
    It just seems so wasteful,
    When I think of Marianne Faithful,
    I think a Mars Bar is so much more me...

    Also dedicating my Good Friday to the cause of washing and ironing...who would be a woman!

    I'm dedicating mine to exactly the same things - and hoovering and dusting. Who'd be a bloke eh?

    It's no sin to look forward to things that you enjoy. Remember participation is the key... ;)

    Sorry Z didn't mean to sound like the anti man brigade, just my OH and DS's will quite happily watch me vacuum, dust, iron, wash while they play on guitar hero. I should have said, who would be a woman in my house!

    Do you wear a frilly apron when you do the dusting Z;)
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.
  • Yep, mine do the same too-will have to think of a ditty about that one. Well peeps am just about to watch Chocolat with the delicious Jonny Depp in it- my one weakness!

    Afternoon all.

    I'm supposed to be doing some work from home but the call of MSE and DFW forum was too great!!!

    We've had a little shower but nothing too bad. Got a friend coming round at 4pm and I know we'll end up polishing off a bottle of Bailey's so might not get on again later on.

    Of course they will if you let them. Every time they start playing, hoover in front of the telly...
