Well, when you are sitting around the pool drinking Margarita's, surrounded by orange and lemon trees, giant roses, geraniums and bougainvillea, it can seem quite the life! We picked up a freshly...

Re: Foxy Noxy
Bit anti-American and sexist all of this. What about Rafael Sollecito? Don't see anyone mentioning if he is hot and sexy, whether he might slash your throat in bed, or that an Italian was actually...

We have a Jacuzzzi in our master bath,...

Re: What power does the IRS have in the UK?
