No, no maid in the UK!!!!

I wear shirts every day to work, other than a Friday as we have a Dress-down Friday policy. Sometimes I wear a casual shirt on a Friday rather than a t-shirt and my wife hates me for it.

she keep threatening to make me iron my own shirts. It is amazing how many ironed shirts a bottle of good plonk and a bunch of flowers can buy you!!!!

That sounds nice. Just back from T.V.'s and all I have is a cheese sandwich!

I think I need to upgrade myself.

this made you twitch........... ok..............

"I first fry the bacon [Oh Baby] and put it on kitchen roll [Oooh roll me] to get rid of the excess fat[*], and then I use a little bit of the greasy [energy] to fry the onions, garlic and then add the mushrooms...after a little while I add the Boursin and the cheese [and Baby we gaze into each others eye and wink a little, not quite blink, Just wink, a little...... In the meantime, the pasta has cooked, I add that and at the last moment I add the crumbled bacon over it...if you do that earlier it gets soggy and I like it to be crispy..."


oh gosh.. not sure

Bit slow - that's quite funny - bit of a turn up for the books really. Just make sure you don't get cuffed or collared though, Time to button up I think.

( sorry - LL used the BUTT word again )
