I'd have been married 25 years this September. There are things I can't remember now. What sort of dinners did we used to eat, given that j was vegetarian? I should remember, I cooked them ffs! What was the name of the ironiong lady? She worked for us for years and years and I can't remember. Poor Wilbur's dead now, and poor Florence of course. A whole family destroyed and an ironing lady unemployed. It's a tragedy.

Hold on, an ironing lady. I assume she did other household chores at an agreed rate per hour.

There is only so much ironing one person or two people can need.

Yes, I saw the Thatcher 'joke', but it really wasn't much of a joke, was it?

A chap is allowed the occasional moment of reflection, surely?

No, there was a cleaner for cleaning and an ironing lady for ironing :shrug:

One wouldn't employ a rocket scientist to perform brain surgery, would one?

Let us hope that he never experiences the pain, fear, guilt and emptiness of such an experience* :-(

Yes. I wouldn't wish it on anyone even in jest. :-(

Although I agree that it seems inevitable.

Always the vulgarity. :sigh:

I am speaking of matters of the heart, of the soul, of the battle 'twixt id and ego. Not shagging.
