Nah I don't buy it at all, sorry.

You were just trying to shift attention off your evil euthanasia designs.

Of course I blame Dermott for Snowy's permanent nervous breakdown. She probably sits there all day staring at dermott and fretting about why Dermott isn't fretting about anything. That must drive her nuts.

Truth is, she sits there all day wondering what he's thinking. He, of course, as we all know, doesn't think. That's the bottom line to her psychosis.

I think my obsession with cheese pales in comparison to your obsession with your pets.
It's sickening. You don't see me going on about shrubs and dogs--and I have the sweetest little cat I could discuss, too.

Presumably some authority figure - mother, wife - made him up tidy up that wall collection before he took the pic. That's definitely what would happen around here. And at Horse's place.

Because, obviously, we'd be lost and helpless if they didn't.

I honestly wonder how Mrs Horse thinks I coped without her. Quite well is the right answer but probably not the one she's thinking of

Yes, but isn't it so much easier to leave the decision making to someone else? Just go with the flow?

I suspect that's the underlying message of a lot of one's little struggles with the mistress of the house.

Cleo magazine of course doesn't cover these aspects of women so I have no clear guide

Of course, the challenge arises when one actually wants to do something that she doesn't want to do. Or any variation thereof. That's when it gets really tricky.

I know you've actually been to the Jaws Of Death and back more than a couple of times. What does your combat experience suggest? Knowing far enough in advance that the problem is going to arise? Allowing one the time to build up sufficient brownie points by really, really cleverly getting oneself in their good books? [I say really, really cleverly because they do have this inherent knack of knowing when one's greasing up, don't they?]

Speak to me O Great Survivor Of The Jaws of Death.

I rely on a particular copy of Woman's Day that I always find in the waiting room when I go to the dentist. The full colour pics of Queen Elizabeth II's Coronation are a delightful bonus on top of the terrific advice.

Reminds me of the story of the spiritually-inclined chappie who scaled the highest of high mountains in order to ask the guru the meaning of life and I've forgotten the punchline.
