You got me there Steve... ..Nurse Bev... now that sounds quite nice... I'm a very caring person so maybe that'd quite suit me... my minds working overtime with that thought
I did get the hammock put together today in-between the rain and it's a lovely thing... actually not difficult getting in & out of as I thought it might be... Colin gave me some gentle rocking like being at sea and it's great... one of my better purchases I reckon..
Don't think I especially look like Joanne but do have dark hair like her... mind you I've got about 3 colours in my hair at the moment.. all quite subtle though
You seem to have a 'thing' about thumb rings.. I've worn one for years and I like it as does....

Did I give that impression? I will eventually get over it, as my 'things' do change over the years.
I'll tell you something I've never said out loud before - when I was younger I had a 'thing' for women in flip-flop type sandals, that slapping noise they made I think. But then years of seeing women going round Morrisons doing their big shop in flip-flops, but also wearing leggings that made their legs look like two piles of burnt crumpets ruined it for me

There is only one way to avoid criticism: do nothing, say nothing and be nothing Aristotle
Don’t need to get over it Steve... I know why you like them, probably much the same reason as I do..I think
I happen to really dislike the flip-flop sound... I am wearing sandals that look a bit like flip-flops, with the toe bit, but mine have a bit on the heel as well so they don’t make that horrible sound...
Leggings of any kind are just nasty things... I maybe wore them when I was much younger but wouldn’t be seen dead in them now. Shortish skirts are my thing, especially if we ever get some sort of summer... I’m still wearing them though just in case... you have to be prepared

I’m not so keen on feet but have a bit of a thing for hands and fingers....

My wife wears flip-flops. She makes an almighty racket when exercising with her skipping rope in the garden.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
