I have a pair of Russell & Bromley slippers I've had for nearly 30 years. My wife keeps trying to throw them out on the grounds that they look their age, but I won't let her.Quote:

Perhaps you're too thin? Perhaps you need a bit of fat to fill out the wrinkly bits?Quote:

But anyway, it seems that nobody's relationships last. Which makes me feel better about things.
It shouldn't, though. It should make you feel as vacuous and amoral as the rest of them. :-(Quote:

It's the chap on the boat I feel most sorry for. He's always been a bit of an Africa fiend and would go off there for months on end, doing various weird jobs. Anyway, he goes off to Liberia for six months and comes home to find his glw in bed with his mate.Quote:
