    Advice needed for a friend

    Mr ms just called. He was happy for 25 years - then he met ms. He feels he ought to get her a present. Cannot decide between a first book of cooking and a new fire extinguisher for the kitchen after the last incident.

    It has to be cheap. Any suggestions I can pass on?

    Cheap and best? Pearl Necklace.

    I'm sure MF would agree.

      Tell him not to bother - why break the habit of a lifetime (well 23 years - he remembered the first year)?

        Married 2 and MrsB has a flawless track record so far. She forgot both of them.

          Not with my little fellas. Strong jawline, muscular, intellectual, entrepreneur incredible genetics. Clinics pay a fortune for mine. Brillo on the other hand, scraped from the bottom of the sink, probably more apt.

            You missed the inability to stop eating.

                Hence the strong, muscular jawline. It's all that mastication.

                  Well it's something to do with what he puts in his mouth...

                    His foot? I don't think he's that agile.
