Ok looking for advice. We know a couple who live on two boats....... not sure if the lady is the chaps mum or girlfriend........ how do you casually find out......  I mean if you state "hows you mum ?" to the chap that could be bad if its his g/f... etc etc. I was thinking along the lines of " how is your sister" hoping to get clarification lol. |

I ran the nursery at my school for a few years & we used to have an intro session with the parent(s).One day one of the support staff was verrrrrry red faced as she had said how lovely to see a dad & a grandma.Yep, you have guessed it,it was husband & much older wife 😵It didn't help that she looked loads older than she actually was😕.

A bit like "when is the baby due". When all they are is lardy.

When on the edge of drinking oblivion my mate introduced his new g/f who looked amazingly like Dawn French. I stood up and blurted out "nice to meet you: do you know you look just like......" at this point a long pause as, in the beer haze, something told me that to say Dawn F was not a good thing......" someone I used to know".

you could always tell him you fancy her and wondered if she's available for dusting duties?

We didn't go to church this morning either, but have been doing some honest grafting. The pile of lengths opposite the cages have now been cut up and stacked, those beside the car are for after lunch. That third 'cage' is our latest extension - 66 screws to build that 'gate'. The saw horse is also new, we made that last weekend - it's about 60 kilogrammes. goo.gl/photos/8y5jFcQTa6TC2bh3A |
