Sometimes It Is Necessary To Make Sacrifices

[Dingdell]

Where's the sacrifice?

You've obv never tried to persuade a man to part with any piece of clothing in his wardrobe then?! It can be 20 years out of date, tatty and the wrong size but a man will never throw it out.

According to who?

Good point - a man will never accept he's grown out of something! And women really believe they are still a size 12 when in fact the manufacturers are making the clothes larger.

Write more tales Ralph, you have a gift for story-telling, & write so beautifully.

To be fair, any written piece "reads" 100% better if it's properly presented, with paras, punctuation, & them oldey-fashioned things like full stops & commas. The internet & text messaging is destroying - has destroyed - written Engllish in so short a time - less than 20 years?

So true.

Lol.

He PM'd me huffily to point out that Fenlanders & Norfolk-ers are not quite the same thing, sent me links to Wiki Pages & all sorts.

Sensitive subject, apparently, & his 127 cousins all agreed.
