on the sofa tonight...........

[Saddle bum]

There was an actress who has been around for some time on the box tonight.

So I said to SWMBO, "She looks as if she's got a few miles on the clock".

Frosty silence........... followed by, " She's got the same birthday as me and she's a year younger".

Oh, dear.........

 

[BigonaBianchi]

..yes dear that was precisely my point, that you look stunningly beautiful for your years compared to her..

 

[dudi]

ohh, perfect opportunity for a save and some serious compliments there...

'really dear? but you look so much more youthful. the years have been so kind to you.'

heh

 

[rich p]

Quite right, Saddle. If she's not worn well perhaps she should sleep on the sofa

I used to lust over Liz Hurley but made a comment once that I had gone off her now she was looking a bit old and mumsy.
Similar frosty reception.

I got a put down last week .Me and Mrs Postman do not have the same idea on tidyness.I can be overbearing .
But i have always been a tidy bloke .So i mentioned about putting things away last week that she had got out a few days before .

"This is a home not a showhouse "i was told .

not quite.

'You cannot be serious. No! That's impossible! I don't believe it! If that's true then it just shows what a sunny outlook on life and a little looking after yourself can do! I'm amazed! No, you're amazing! Wow! Then again, you've always carried an air of celebration around with you - people mention it to me all the time. Well, mostly the men. And celebration isn't the word they use. Well, darling, I do realise how very lucky I am........'

Something like that......

 

[thelurker]

err, i think i'd be in more trouble if i said a speech that cheesy!

 

[philipbh]

"This is a home not a showhouse "i was told .

Same here: "Its a kitchen, not a f*cking laboratory"

 

[beanzontoast]

"Ahh, but you have a full service history dear!"

Oh, dear.........

Perfect opportunity to tell SWMBO how time has not ravaged her half so much as the actress!

Or you could have said, 'Yes, but you've got a diesel engine. You could go round the clock again.'

I think I would have been in trouble. It's taken me five minutes to think of that.
