So there we are in Halfords, him looking for batteries for his key fob, me looking at radil/cd players for the car. Pointed out one or two that I liked, he not understanding why I want one for the car so badly because after all I can always tape my CDs can't I?

No I say because it takes up more time and I would rather just be able to play the cds in the car or my mp3 player.

But as usual it is like talking to a brick wall, but I know that eventually he will wake up one morning and think Yes we need a CD player in the car and convince himself that it was his idea!

Then it was off to the pet shop, not for essentials for the dogs, but to look at the fish. Just looking he says dragging me over to the tanks where we met the geek of the year who is obviously the fish fanatic and knows everything you probably ever want to know about fish, even down to how much character they have - at one point I thought that he was going to tell me that they laugh at his jokes (which he tried to tell us badly) and that they do a song and dace as well!

So Nig ends up buying a couple of different varieties leaving himself £30 poorer and he complains to me about looking at some toys for the dogs because we are saving for Florida!!!!!

so that was my afternoon, very windy out, but warm and sun is trying very hard to shine

Have to be serious Faffa now.

Just been told off by hubby he wishes to go out so is dragging me to Halfords of all places!

May, just may get him to go round a few shops with me yet

The following quotes taken from the Toronto News on July 26, 1977, are actual statements from insurance forms where car drivers tried to summarize accident details in as few words as possible. Such instances of faulty writing serve to confirm that grammer bloopers can be highly entertaining.

1. Coming home I drove into the wrong house and collided with a tree I don't have.

2. The other car collided with mine without giving warning of its intent.

3. I collided with a stationary truck coming the other way.

4. In my attempt to kill a fly, I drove into a telephone pole.

5. I had been shopping for plants all day and was on my way home. As I reached an intersection, a hedge sprang up, obscuring my vision and I did not see the other car.

6. I had been driving for forty years when I fell asleep at the wheel and had an accident.

7. I was on my way to the doctor with rear end trouble when my universal joint gave way causing me to have an accident.

8. My car was legally parked as it backed into the other vehicle.

9. As I approached the intersection a sign suddenly appeared in a place where no sign had ever appeared before, making me unable to avoid the accident.

10. I told the police I was not injured, but upon removing my hair, I found that I had a fractured skull.

11. I was sure the old fellow would never make it to the other side of the road when I struck him.

12. I saw a slow-moving, sad-faced old gentleman as he bounced off the hood of my car.

13. The indirect cause of the accident was a little guy in a small car with a big mouth.

14. I was thrown from my car as it left the road, and was later found in a ditch by some stray cows.

15. A pedestrian hit me and went under my car.

16. I thought my window was down, but I found out it was up when I put my head through it.

17. To avoid hitting the bumper of the car in front, I struck the pedestrian.

18. The guy was all over the road. I had to swerve a number of times before I hit him.

19. The pedestrian had no idea which way to run, so I ran over him.

20. An invisible car came out of nowhere, struck my car and vanished.

21. A truck backed through my windshield into my wife's face.

22. I pulled away from the side of the road, glanced at my mother-in-law, and headed over the embankment.

Article found on an Australian website

REMOVING all your pubic hair improves a woman's sex life, according to a sample of Australians who have embraced the Brazilian phenomenon.

Preliminary results from a quirky online survey by cosmetic specialists have shed the first light on the reasons many Australian women opt to permanently remove all their genital hair.

More than 80 per cent said they underwent the so-called permanent Brazilian, where hair is lasered off, for aesthetic reasons, and about 60 per cent said hygiene was a motivator.

But half of the 100 women of all ages surveyed also reported that being hairless made then feel sexier and enhanced their sexual pleasure.

So now you all know

Thanks for all your suggestions, think I may have found a pair and ordered them, hopefully to arrive sometime this week for me to see what they are like with the dress!

Wet like most Bank holidays, though I will admit the garden needs the rain so shouldn't really complain.

it is just I like the sun too much, it makes me feel cheerful after a winter of feeling depressed.

Oh well can't have everything in life can we lol!

I was planning on hitting the shops and trying to get some shoes for my outfit, but as I have only just emerged from the sanctum of my bed, it may take a while for me to get everyone else up and ready so I may just have to postpone it for now.

I am not sure what colour to get though. I did think pink to go with the dress but most of the pink shoes out there are either too bright or too shocking and wouldn't go. So may get cream instead. I have an aversion to white shoes, though that may be a possibility is all else fails. Any ideas? I will post a piccy of the dress.

Oh and no it isn't me just the catalogue picture lol.

So any ideas will be welcome. I have tried the shoes that the woman in the picture is wearing but they were a little high and I found I had difficulty in walking in them though I may have to practice that one!

Right breakfast is calling me, bacon rolls yoummy!
