Is it a CELEBRATION of the French surrender in 1940?

by **Hungry Haggis** » Fri Jun 18, 2010 10:14 am

Is more likely to have something to do with this I think

by **Mayfly** » Fri Jun 18, 2010 4:00 pm

by **Aceyone** » Fri Jun 18, 2010 4:10 pm

I'm sure you could but you wouldn't get a penny out of me ,to get mugged by two women in one week would be embarrassing

by **Mayfly** » Fri Jun 18, 2010 4:12 pm

love it!!!

by **Xplumberlives** » Fri Jun 18, 2010 4:47 pm

I'm intrigued to find out who mugged you first?

by **Mayfly** » Fri Jun 18, 2010 4:50 pm

don't know but she would have to have been quick to beat me to it!!!!! :))

by **Xplumberlives** » Fri Jun 18, 2010 5:03 pm

All for the sake of 50p!

by **Mayfly** » Fri Jun 18, 2010 5:10 pm

50p I was only going to mug him for 30p

by **Aceyone** » Fri Jun 18, 2010 5:10 pm

S.W.M.B.O a weekly ritual in this and many other domains I suspect :))

by **Xplumberlives** » Fri Jun 18, 2010 5:15 pm

The vast majority!

by **Mayfly** » Fri Jun 18, 2010 5:30 pm

Well I need to look for someone else to mug with the expenses DT incurred this week!!! :ymdevil:

by **Aceyone** » Fri Jun 18, 2010 5:50 pm

Tell us more,has DT been doing something he shouldn't have

by **Mayfly** » Fri Jun 18, 2010 5:55 pm

Nah, he couldn't get away with anything - far too many people know who he is!!! I was referring to my camera he bought!!

by **Xplumberlives** » Fri Jun 18, 2010 5:59 pm

Oh, I thought you bought it with HIS money!

Small print in Wedding vows (no one EVER reads this bit)

What's yours is now mine and what's mine is still my own.

That's why the marriage certificate is the possession of the woman. =))
