So you have a quota?

So where does that leave those of us that are US/UK couples?

Surely it couldn't have just been the bedroom antics?!

Unless you provide full details of said bedroom antics, how can we make a valid assessment?

It started with the manual and then we utilized DH's engineering background, a can of WD 40 and duct tape.

What can I say? It was magic.

Don't have very many close friends here at all It kinda struck me when my OH bought me a cell phone for our anniversary as apart from his and some of his families numbers I only have one other number in it

I do know quite a few people but I feel like an outsider with a lot of them. I don't think they intentionally make me feel that way, it's just me.
