Not surprised. The average narrowboat bed is 4ft wide! And a whole narrowboat's about as wide as the average king-sized bed. Not conducive to group romping, I suspect. Not unless you like porthole-marks and bruises on your body parts. And smirks or snarls from the neighbours next morning. However, boats do have access to all sorts of remote bits of countryside, don't they? ... (starts thinking interestingly of fields.... in summer, mind!)
What I want to know is how many of you were frolicking in DG's bedroom? The teddy must've had the time of his life watching that photo session!
Or is there a standard SH-issue bedroom I need to invest in?
Fab pics, all.
Mmm xx
Duvet-rollers are evil and should be banished to the spare room once they've served their purpose. The spare room is also where the alarm clock is kept so they can wake up early and have breakfast ready.
However, I don't see what all the fuss is about cold feet/bums in bed ... oi! stop screaming, there!
Happy Next Year forumites! Various family down in NZ have already got there and they report that it's very nice so we're safe to proceed...
Hopefully I'll get to meet some of you lovely peeps in 2009.
Mmmm x
Wanted to be a pilot. But then I discovered they wouldn't let shortsighted people be in charge of planes full of people. So thirty-odd years later I'm still trying different careers for size - one day soon I might stick at one!
Freud was right. I have always wanted to be able to pee standing up.
I was walking past a 'children, go slow' sign with my friend's daughter about the time she was learning to read. She read, and promptly threw a huge paddy demanding to know "why SHOULD we!!???"
She then threw another paddy because her mum and I wouldn't stop laughing.
If you're lusting after someone and not doing anything about it, you're probably generating 'fuck me' sparks all over the place - just got to get out a lot and wait for one to fall into some interesting tinder...
Your avatar looks perfectly healthy so far, at least. Don't let Dawnie damage it!
Nope, can't be doing with it. I see them as 'boys toys' - impressive-looking and with an impressive list of features. Whereas I just want something straightforward to get on with the job!
I do own one though. It was sent as a birthday present by a friend - wrapped only in thin giftwrapping paper, delivered to my communal mailbox. The elderly and rather seedy neighbour who distributes the post handed it to me with a smirk and a "think you've got you a package here, darlin'!" - there were a good few other guys in the post room who were most amused. Bang went MY 'nice girl' image! If my friend had sent it to my office address, as she'd thought of doing (rabbits don't go through letter boxes easily), she'd be dead now!
'I must not do any domestic chores ever'
That's reward, not punishment!! I'm sure there are many horrid jobs to do (other than decorating) to keep you busy and contrite for a while...
So, what magic trick de-inked the carpets in the end?
I thought the concept of Depo was great until my sister had it and ballooned by several stone in a matter of months. As well as having her moods go haywire. Worse was, even though she realised it was happening, she could't undo the shot. At least with other methods you can stop them if they're not agreeing with you!
Chocolate and lots of sympathy's all I can offer
Hmmm, interesting...
I have never had the opportunity to call 'next!'
Must've been some big night on Saturday! You all seem to be poorly with different versions of Wiganitis! Hope you's better soon.
Married/with someone. Txtspk. Cockshots in first message (however technically impressive it is, I'm interested in your other head first!). Excessive body hair. Bad wallpaper in the background. Ads of less than 3 lines.
Am still new enough to be amused by some of the really cringingly cheesy attempts at being witty and original - though from reading the posts above it doesn't look like I've heard the half of it yet...!
Sounds like a fab night. Hope I get to come to the next one!!
Hot bath - could happily stay in till I dissolved...
I couldn't possibly 'entertain' at mine in winter - bedsocks and woolly hat are soooo unsexy!
Dull but necessary reading
Hmmm, tricky one. My mother was in pretty much the same position as the one being discussed. She wasn't happy with what I got up to and made that very clear but took the view that she'd rather I was safe and was equipped with knowledge to make my own decisions - so took me down to Brook and everything, which her friends thought was crazy. Looking back I'm a bit horrified at how young I was and wish she'd been stricter with me in many ways (a teenager needs to push their limits - and wants to find there are some!). But then I think of friends who were too scared to discuss things with their parents and ended up having unprotected sex, getting pregnant, getting nasties...
And, happily, that sweet innocent 'older man' I corrupted so many years ago is still a close friend and barely older than me now!
American friends of mine are holding extra special Thanksgiving celebrations this year - to give thanks that they aren't facing four years of Sarah Palin - oh, and that bloke she was running with. Still not having pumpkin pie this side of the pond tho - yeuch!
Not sure about rooftop jacuzzis but I've heard they have great hot springs - indoor and outdoor. Want to go just for those! If it's cold outside you just have to stay in longer
