Now there's an incentive, I think he'd love that!
Just switched the telly on, and it's on a channel called Really, and the programme is called "Ghost Adventures". What a load of crap! A bunch of grown men wandering round an old hotel in the middle of the night with recording equipment. Just about to change channels, when suddenly, by torchlight, a white spot (which could be a spirit) moved across the room. Moving in a zig zag pattern, apparently to avoid being detected by the light of the torch. IT'S A BLOODY MOTH!
No mention of Baby Sussex though, so that's a good thing...
Ah, so that's how it's been happening?:doh: And there was me worried about the aftermath of watching 'Babes & Brazzers':eyebrows:Quote:

Baby Lancashire still going strong, as can be seen in my avatar. :)Quote:

Nah, I just turn it inside out, and it'll be good for another day or two :) Obviously I put some newspapers down before I sit, I'm not a complete slob.
The thought of turning things inside out for extra 'wear' does seem to repulse me.... I sometimes change a couple of times a day so can't quite 'get' that...
Lol - know... That's why wearing white (rather than black) undies is practical, as you can, erm, instantly see 'anything' that shouldn't be there!:doh::eek:
Better to change often than allow any 'build up'!:lol::D
Marco.
Or not wear 'undies' at all which is what I've been doing recently... with a skirt that'll 'cover' things, of course.... I defo won't be flashing anything :eyebrows:
But it's a nice feeling of freedom
Just keep away from bouncy castles. Kiddies' mums don't like it...Quote:

Lol, what are you lot like!:D
Using your imagination to 'fill n the blanks', as you say, is definitely sexier. As I said before, the bouncy-castle tart you mentioned before was precisely that: an attention-seeking tart, and would've got a major ticking off for her behaviour, had she been my wife, not that Del would dream of behaving like that, even though she's small and agile enough to make a good job of jumping up and down on a bouncy castle or trampoline, and not look ridiculous - indeed she's still a big kid herself!
As Bev says, flashing things like that is slutty, and lacks class. Indeed, if I'd been there with male friends, I'd have been laughing *at* her, not with her, and we'd have found her rather tragic! Fair enough if a woman chooses not to wear knickers under her skirt, because she likes the freedom it gives and makes her feel sexy or naughty, but that should be her 'little secret', and perhaps that of her partner, not something that she broadcasts to the world. I'm sure that Bev would agree:)

Maybe the invite was mis-leading and the lady had read the invite to the party incorrectly and had gone dressed appropriately, perhaps Bouncy-Castle is a euphemism that we don’t understand.;)
Heard she had a wee nick down there, and was told to let the air get to it;)Quote:

Yesh, that'll be from when Steve had that unfortunate slip, whilst 'mowing her lady garden', with a blunt Gillette Venus.Quote:

fanny mae ...yay
Classic, innit?:D
Ye cannae whack the old Scottish comedies!
That's also why 'beaver hunting', in Glasgow, takes on a whole new meaning... You can floss your teeth on some of the 'fur':eyebrows:
Marco.
we all like a bit o' beaver
Totally agree with all that Marco...Quote:

I totally 'get' the feeling of wearing no nicks but I'd want to keep it as my, and my partners, 'little secret' as that's the sexy/naughty bit don't you think ?
Absolutely! It's those types of things that can really spice up a relationship:eyebrows:;)
Marco.
The thoguht of your full Brazil Steve conjures up so many thoughts.... :doh:Quote:

In my experience all guys are different... to some the best clothes are the one's in a pile on the floor but for others sexy undies are the way to go... I guess everyone to their own...
Did a business ethics course at work this week. Quite confusing. You cannot accept any gift from a client that 'might be considered extravagant'
So there's a question 'A client offers you a box set of DVDs, can you accept it?' So I answer 'Yes'. I'm thinking an extravagant gift is like a Rolex or something. I mean a box set of DVDs, it's what? Twenty quid value tops. Who's buying DVDs nowadays ffs? But apparently that's wrong and you can't accept a DVD box set, it's an extravagant gift. A coffee mug with the client's name on it is okay though. Whoopee doo.
But later they ask 'Is it okay for a client to take you out to a show, buy you a meal at a restaurant and put you up in an hotel for the night?' - And the answer is yes, that is perfectly fine.
I'm really struggling with it tbh.
We were all asked to go on one. It was when I worked for BAE Systems ('nuff said about the ethics of a defense company and weapons manufacturer). I declined - finding their hypocrisy remarkable.Quote:

This was compulsory. Been there almost 13 years never had a thing offered to me. It was just the idea of a DVD box set being considered as 'extravagant' that got me.
Mine was compulsory. I just found ways of avoiding it. :DQuote:

That certainly is confusing. I guess the difference is there is no lingering evidence of the show, hotel and hookers. While the box set remains as evidence of the exchange? Once a sales woman gave me a bottle of liquor for Christmas, that was about the limit of my benefits from outside. Although, they made a rule that no one was supposed to do telephone surveys. A woman called me and offered $50 to take a survey, seeing I did all the buying for the computer department, and I took it! In only two days I got the check in the mail. So, I guess I wasn’t the people your class was talking to?Quote:

So as I could not be 'bought', or in any way induced by 'backhanders', I regarded the ethic course as not being applicable to me, and avoided/boycotted it.
I'm sure you were principled, but presumably your job title was 'Principal Research Scientist'?Quote:

She suggested we try a sample, and they delivered a $12.5K version of the printer, I pointed out that it was not the version I was shopping for, but was told not to worry. Well, it boiled down to her giving me an invoice for the $12.5K printer, and I refused it, told her to load it up and take it the heck outta there! She was no longer kind, and threw a fit! And I wound up getting the $12.5K printer for $9K! I guess it was a good thing I didn’t sleep with her?Quote:

Oops - yes, 'Principal'. Too much vino!Quote:

Aye, and don't forget Gertrude, who gave you the CRABS!:lol:Quote:
