So you like being spanked  eeek:

I'd prefer to be the spanker rather than the spankee but it depends who is making the offer.

Some Peruvians of our acquaintance were eyeing some guinea pigs in a local pet shop with some interest. Seems they are a very popular lunch in Peru.

Anyhoo, and getting back in the direction of the topic, Mrs Nick arrived home with several bottles of Dandelion and Burdock. I know not why

I stand corrected ~ they do not still exist then but one gets so much crap through the letter box. Coopers of Stortford are one such and then there's Stowes of Bath and so it goes on and on. I still get one occasionally that offers the most bizarre items which is why I assumed Innovations was still going ~ they all go in the recycling box unread anyway.


Perhaps you should have looked a little further Nick ....... 6 months later the BBC said

OK so now what about the three postal deliveries, the milk in bottle delivered early in the morning, Old Ladies riding their bicycles through the mists to early morning mass and proper exams. Where are Johnny Onion and the Peg Lady?

I want my life back! cussing:
And the man who brought blocks of salt around on his horse drawn cart, and the scary gypsy lady with sprigs of heather, if you didn't buy any she would place a curse on you and your family for 7 generations, another reason why I have ended up on here!
