Mr Cadbury and Miss Rowntree met on a Double Decker, it was After Eight.

She was from Quality Street , he was a Fisherman's Friend.

On the way they stopped at a Yorkie Bar, he had a Rum and Butter, she had a Wine Gum.

He asked her name, "Polo, I'm the one with the hole" she said.

"I'm the one with the nuts," he thought! Then he touched her Milky Way.

They checked in to a hotel, and went straight to the bedroom. Mr Cadbury turned out the light for a bit of Black Magic.

It wasn't long before he slipped his hand into her Snickers and felt her Cream Egg.

He fondled her Flap Jacks then he showed her his Curly Wurly and Tic Tacs.

Miss Rowntree wasn't keen to have any Jelly Babies, so she let him take a trip down Bourneville Boulevard via her Party Ring. He was pleased as he always fancied a bit of Fudge. It was a magic moment as she let out a scream of Turkish Delight.

When he pulled out, his fun size Mars Bar felt a bit Crunchie.

She wanted more, but he needed Time Out, however, he noticed her Pink Wafers looked very appetizing. He did a Twirl, had a Picnic in her Sherbet Dip and finished off by giving her a Gob Stopper!

Unfortunately, Mr Cadbury then had to go home to his wife,Caramel.

Sadly, 3 days later his Magnum lolly started to drip. It turned out Miss Rowntree had been with Bertie Basset who had Allsorts!!!

Inspired by CJ here

This was really difficult, because like AJ, I have a lot of films that I watch over and over again and they are quite a range of genres as well. So here goes:

1) Breakfast at Tiffanys - Audrey Hepburn as Holly golightly always manages to make me smile on a cold wet afternoon

2) The Mummy - Just love watching this film, good casting

3) Armaggedon - always the same bit I cry at

4) Sahara - 2005 version with Matthew McConaughey

5) Knight's tale - two of my favourite actors in this and the casting is great - again never fails to raise a smile

6) The Bourne identity - Watched it so many times can almost tell you what will happen next

7) Lord of the Rings Trilogy - See above

8) Bullet proof Monk - just makes me laugh, lighthearted as well as serious

9) Evolution - Stupidity, humour and will never look at Head and Shoulders shampoo in the same light again

10) Blade trinity - Just really enjoy it:)

Course I have to mention that I also like Pirates of the Caribbean, pride and Prejudice, Frailty, Transporter, Kingdom of Hearts and Toy story:)

Hot

by faffajane @ 15/07/07 - 19:38:31

That is me, hot.

hubby commented on how red I looked.

no I haven't been in the sun, for some reason, today of all days, I decided to make a very very hot curry!

Not a good idea, now very very hot:)

Had the most amazing thunderstorm here earlier and the rain came down so hard that the patio flooded, it could not drain away quick enough.

Thunder storm hasn't cleared the air at all though it is still muggy outside:)

From Urban Dictionary

1. Samantha

Usually a name for a person that is a walking Goddess. Gorgeous to the maximum, fun to talk to, easy to befriend with a sexy booty. Often pulls off the innocent act but she gets around.

Damn, that Samantha is too cute for words.

I can live with that:)

Nothing for Faffajane - not listed yet, perhaps I should do my own:)

This fellow is looking to buy a saw to cut down some trees in his garden.

He goes to a chainsaw shop and asks about various chainsaws.

The dealer tells him, "This chainsaw here is fantastic, it will cut down 100 trees in one day."

So the man takes the chainsaw home and begins working on the trees. After cutting for several hours he's still cut down only two trees.

he gives up.

The next day he gets up at dawn and cuts all day, but he stil only manages three trees. He is really fed up.

The next day the man takes the saw back to the dealer and explains the problem. The dealer, baffled by the man's claim, removes the chainsaw from the cas. The dealer says, "Hmm, it looks fine."

Then the dealer starts the chainsaw's engine up and the man says,

"What's that noise?"

Chicken at a Chinese Restaurant

CHICKEN AT A CHINESE RESTAURANT
A couple go for a meal at a Chinese restaurant and order the "Chicken
Surprise".

The waiter brings the meal served in a lidded cast iron pot.
Just as the wife is about to serve herself, the lid of the pot rises
slightly and she briefly sees two beady little eyes looking around before
the lid slams back down.

"Good grief, did you see that?" she asks her husband.
He hasn't, so she asks him to look in the pot. He reaches for it and again
the lid rises, and he sees two little eyes looking around before it slams
down. Rather perturbed, he calls the waiter over, explains what is
happening, and demands an explanation.

"Please, sir," says the waiter, "what you order?"
The husband replies, "Chicken Surprise."
You're going to love this....................

"Ah... so sorry," says the waiter, "I bring you Peeking Duck.

Meno's feet competition

by faffajane @ 15/07/07 - 12:08:07

There we are my dear, a picture of my feet.

Not very good:)

SS850185

I have very dry feet which need copious amounts of moisturising hence the skin peeling on one of my toes. I also have a couple of blisters from the shoes I wore yesterday - the one pair that I wear without any problems at all normally, so my feet are looking in pretty bad shape at the moment!

A series of unfortunate events

by faffajane @ 15/07/07 - 11:47:24

This week has been hectic as I documented in an earlier post this week. Not a lot of time to myself and very little time to catch up with posts on here either, for which I am sorry if I haven't managed to comment or say hi recently.

Yesterday didn't get any better either.

First thing we were all dolled up to the nines and headed off to a photographic studio to get a family portrait done. Quite simple you would think, except when i arrived at the town centre I found I had lost one of my earrings - this in itself should have warned me of what was about to come.

After hunting down similar pair of earrings and purchasing them (wasn't going to be photographed without), we headed to the studios, which, when we got there, were closed. Consulting the time onour watches, we were a little early so decided to find somewhere to have some breakfast as none of us had eaten yet.

So far so good, all went well, no one had managed to spill anything onto their outfits and stain clothes, so feeling good we went back to the studios which were still closed and locked up. Never mind, thinking photographer was just running late, we meandered through the stalls outside and had a browse through the wares they were selling, keeping one eye on the studio in case a door should open. It never did.

15 minutes after our appointed time, Nig phoned up the photographer to ask where he was, when a heated discussion ensued.

Photographer: But you cancelled

Nig: no I didn't

P:Yes you did in the week and I have taken on another commision now at a school ballet contest

N: Not my problem I didn't cancel at all, in fact we were all too keen to be photographed

P: Let me check, yes Mrs Henley phoned on Thursday to cancel

N:but our name isn't Henley it is ...........

P: Oh sorry wrong name and day, would you like to reschedule?

N: No thank you think you are making all this up and have let us down quite badly, it is appalling service and we will not be using you.

And so it went, I was fuming - seems to me he was offered a better paid commision and decided to take that instead just by the tone of his voice on the phone, the no care attitude.

So we browsed round the shops and found another studio inside Debenhams and we have booked in there for next week - they did offer to squeeze us in after hearing our tale of woe, but wasn't in the mood now:)

....................................................................

Came home and hubby needs the holiday paperwork so he can fill out his holiday sheet. Problem is though I can't find it. This time of year for paperwork it is a nightmare. It is piled up on the table, threatening to fall over, but haven't got time to sort through it to deal with it. So we spent a few hours sorting through a number of items and shredding those we don't want, when I realised that I have shredded a couple of very important documents that I need next week. Not a good move and no way I can get copies, really don't need this at the moment.
......................................................................

A friend emailed me earlier in the week with news of something she was taking part in. She was chatty in the email, but reading between the lines things are not good at the moment, something she denied when I emailed her back and asked. Yesterday I got a detailed email from her telling me what really was wrong. After 16 years of marriage her husband has walked out. There was no argument, no other woman, no reason that she could think of at the time for him to do this. They had a good marriage as far as she was aware, yet he just packed up and went, no note, nothing. Naturally she is devastated, she now knows why he has gone, and it isn't for me to document it on here, but to say I was shocked to the core, hence my post yesterday.

Why do bad things happen to good people?

Right enough of this depressing post, today is a new day, the sun is shining for now and I have a ton of things that need to be done today, so for now, I will sign off and wish you all a good day.
