We Aussie blokes are so good to you women!!!


My wife and I walked past a swanky new restaurant last night.


"Did you smell that food, it smelt incredible?" she said.

Being the nice fellow I am, I thought :


"B*gger it, I'll treat her!"





So we walked past it again!

:-D

Allan, Are you sure you are a Aussie bloke?

You must have Yorkshire blood in your veins ;-)

second thoughts may be not, a yorkshire man would have got his wife a job working in the kitchens :-D

Allan .thought you were so generous & caring now i know you are , your oh is sooo lucky to have you .or maybe not :-D

Hello all

Roy, wrong side of the Pennines: Lancashire, or at least Manchester, but now live near Perth in WA.

I told you I'd be back Suzanne. The swelling in my right eye has now gone done and even with my fingers in splints I am able to use the keyboard, although with some difficulty!

Barbra, I've decided that we should do this every Friday from now on.

Joy, the only reason you could kick me twice was because my wife had already nearly mained me with a marsupial

:-D :-D :-D :-D

ALLEN
ive told your wife on numerous occasions to wallop you with a frying pan and not a wallaby, but in this instance i will allow her to do you some considerable damage with a kangaroo(they do more damage than a wallaby)what a horrible thing to do,make your wife walk past a lovely restaurant and only be allowed to sniff the air,what did you do for valentines day, ? cook a lovely BBQ and tie her to the chair in front of it???? :-D :-D

Ah, Suzanne, on Valentine's Day we were getting ready to go for dinner on our cruise ship which was being served at 7.00pm (the dinner not the ship!) when at 6.45 pm she whispered romanticalliy my ear:

"I'm going to throw up" which she promptly proceeded to do!

I went to dinner by myself, but ever thoughtful, I did take a dry bread roll back to the cabin for her. She was seasick for the next couple of days :-( :-(

Suzanne

Suzanne Report 12 Mar 2012 21:40

oh how romantic ALLAN
i do hope your wife put the heavy frying pan in her luggage to wallop you will when she was feeling a little better. :-D

Allan

Allan Report 12 Mar 2012 21:43

The plural of wallop is wallopies (Think about it for a minute) :-D :-D

Suzanne

Suzanne Report 12 Mar 2012 21:45

dont want to think about it ALLAN. :-D :-D

Allan

Allan Report 12 Mar 2012 21:52

Suzanne, you've given me an idea for a new short story.

It would be about a herd of Wallopies whose distant ancestors were frying pans.

The story line would probably be a bit more interesting that the one I was going to do about the guy who invented the plastic frying pan.

His invention was not a raging success, more like a raging inferno having been responsible for burning down more than forty houses :-D

omg ALLEN
you have just reminded me of a story about my nan,

nan got a lovely large plastic bowl,thought she would make the family a lovely homemade cottage pie,you can guess the rest,shes 98 now,and can still tell you the story. but mum said that she was always a terrible cook ha ha :-D :-D
