    Should we have a sweep to guess the colour of Catherine's outfit at the wedding. No money etc just a bit of fun:)

    I think we should allow descriptive shades eg baby pink or shocking pink as long as they have meaning:)

    Also tomorrow is all change day again as OH is going back to work.

    He had a very bad few months when things were gradually becoming very stressful at work and as a result he started to get flashbacks - which he didn't tell me about at first but when he did I said it sounded like PTSD.
    He went to the Drs and that's exactly what he said it was PTSD brought on by stress.

    (Inevitably he has had more than his fair share of "incidents" at work over his career. In the olden days there was no counselling or guidance or protocols, you just went back to work again next day. It takes its toll)

    Anyway he is back to work tomorrow so we will see how things go. I think he has found it an eye opener being at home with me - he has seem the chaos, bedlam and mayhem that ensues in the daytime and in the midst of this was Errant son getting prepared to go off for his phase 1 training
    By the time he usually strolls home from work home is an oasis of calm and tranquillity :rotfl:

    And incidentally I've had a glimpse of what it will be like eventually when he retires - not that I will ever retire myself. Instead I will be running a guest house for the befuddled and bewildered :rotfl:

    Thank god, somewhere for DM to go to!

    A 10 foot rope ladder hangs over the side of a boat with the bottom rung on the surface of the water. The rungs are one foot apart, and the tide goes up at the rate of 6 inches per hour. How long will it be until three rungs are covered?

    A rooster laid an egg on top of the barn roof. Which way did it roll?
    A truck driver is going down a one way street the wrong way, and passes at least ten cops. Why is he not caught?

    An electric train is moving north at 100mph and a wind is blowing to the west at 10mph. Which way does the smoke blow?

    How much dirt is there in a hole 3 feet deep, 6 ft long and 4 ft wide?

    If it took eight men ten hours to build a wall,how long would it take four men to build it?

    Larry!!!8217;s father has five sons named Ten, Twenty, Thirty, Forty!!!8230;Guess what would be the name of the fifth?

    Good grief - it does not bear thinking about DM and OH in my guest house for the befuddled and bewildered - I'd be driven bats :rotfl:
    Mind you they could discuss ships and cruises all day and OH would have someone to look and oo and aaah at his 632892 photos of ships, boats, liners, cruises and seascapes :rotfl:
