    We are closed for the refurbishment mate, the wimmen are arguing over the curtain material :roll:


    It would seem that the ladies have all slipped into their wyncette nighties and have gone to bed

    Hows things with you, it's been a while!

    Went to the cricket, enjoyed Christmas, massive family reunion
    at new year and then a bloody big flareup, but back exercising
    the right arm now. Please let me know when the pub reopens.

    As for reverse parking, all to do with spatial analysis.

    Joseph 8)

    Men and women perceive the same world through different eyes. A man sees things and objects and their relationship to each other in a spacial way, as though he was putting the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle together. Women literally take in a bigger, wider picture and see the fine detail, but the individual pieces of the puzzle and their relationship to the next piece is more relevant than their spacial positioning.

    So when I have trouble reverse parking, it's because I'm seeing the wider picture.

    You must admire that there is always just enough on the roll for us.

    Because we're always being lied to by the lads about what 6 inches actually LOOKS like (please don't moderate me), we actually think 6 inches is very very small :-)

    That's why some women can't judge to reverse park.

    Nx ;-)

    PS - I can park in any which way, by the way!

    For instance, why don't men ever listen. I can talk for a good five minutes and he (the OH) will just say yes or no and hope that his answer is right.
    He thinks I'm stupid enough not to know this. It makes me so angry.

    Steph

    i once proved that my oh didn't listen. i recorded a conversation and totally sussed him out!!
    i asked if i could have a new phone, yes he said. then 10 minutes later i asked when and he said "you don't need a new phone" I TOLD HIM HE SAID I COULD HAVE ONE WHICH HE DENIED UNTIL I PLAYED THE CONVERSATION BACK TO HIM!! OK SO I DIDN'T WANT OR NEED THE PHONE BUT I PROVED MY POINT!
    ooop'! didn't mean to shout!!

    IF these rules were followed life would be simpler

    Women, learn to work the toilet seat. You're a big girl. If it's up, put it down. We need it up, you need it down. You don't hear us complaining about you leaving it down.

    Sometimes we are not thinking about you. Live with it.

    Weekend = sports. It's like the full moon or the changing of the tides. Let it be.

    Ask for what you want. Subtle hints do not work! Strong hints do not work! Obvious hints do not work! Just say it!

    We don't remember dates. . . .Period!!

    Most guys own three pairs of shoes - tops. What makes you think we'd be any good at choosing which pair, out of thirty, would look good with your dress?

    Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.

    Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That's what we do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.

    A headache that lasts for 17 months is a problem. See a doctor.

    Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become null and void after 7 days.

    If you won't dress like the Victoria's Secret girls, don't expect us to act like soap opera guys.

    If you think you're fat, you probably are. Don't ask us. We've been tricked before!!

    If something we said can be interpreted two ways, and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one.

    Let us ogle. We are going to look anyway; it's genetic.

    You can either ask us to do something or tell us how you want it done. Not both. If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself.

    Whenever possible, please say whatever you have to say during commercials.

    Christopher Columbus did not need directions, and neither do we.

    The relationship is never going to be like it was the first two months we were going out. Get over it. And quit whining to your girlfriends.

    ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings. Peach, for example, is a fruit, not a color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have no idea what mauve is.

    If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.

    We are not mind readers and we never will be. Our lack of mind-reading ability is not proof of how little we care about you.

    If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing", we will act like nothing's wrong. We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle.

    If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, expect an answer you don't want to hear.

    Don't ask us what we're thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as navel lint, the shotgun formation, or monster trucks.

    Foreign films are best left to foreigners. (Unless it's Bruce Lee or some war flick where it doesn't really matter what they're saying anyway.)

    BEER is as exciting for us as handbags are for you.

    Everything you say is correct in the eyes of a MAN.
    Women just have more love in them and THINK more. Men can't or WON'T think. They just say or do whatever comes to mind at that particular moment not taking into account the womans FEELINGS.
    That's the problem

    Apart from that, your right on it. Thank you for explaining in detail and proving to me in black and white that all men are basically selfish do-dads.

    Hi everyone,

    My oh so clever ex-husband thought he'd help me out and put some anti-freeze in my car ( I usually do these things myself).

    The plonker poured it into the bit where the oil goes!!! :roll: Had to get the car towed to the garage.

    Never offered to help again.

    Hi peeps.
    I'm just going to come in and say that, in my view, when it comes to gossiping, nagging, chatting men take the biscuit. When I went shopping last week, I was trying to get my shopping done asap and OH saw someone he knew, so he says hello to him and his wife.
    I chat to wife for about 20secs and she only has two things to buy and just stands there waiting. I'm sure she must have been pretty annoyed.
    Myself, I start going round store filling my trolley (usually needing OH's help) and still he is talking (and why does he shout when he is talkingto anyone) most annoying.
    I finish my shopping and so stand waiting, and waiting, and waiting.
    I then walk over to the isle and start loading the conveyor belt and in Aldi they do thing very quickly. Finally, OH sees me, stops talkin and rushes over "You shouldn't be doing that". At last I have his attention.

    Did I say it was? :D I might have missed some of your post though, it scrolled right away across the page.. I only have a 19" screen.

    The page has gone very wide for everyone because of the link that Fester's put up .....I only know because it happened once before and the legend who is Joseph said that the link used by someone else at the time was the cause.
