    You're one of the nicest blokes on here. Your decency comes accross loud and clear.
    I'd assumed you were one of those happily married for 20 years blokes.

    Only managed 19. Must have been mid-life crisis, should have just bought a red sports car.

      1) The nicest thing anyone has ever done for you.

      Mrs BGG for being there, for listening, supporting and understanding and never judging.

      2) The most romantic moment of your life

      Far too many to list with Mrs BGG, but the most memorable for me are :

      Walking hand-in-hand along a white sandy beach in the moonlight in Maui
      A special "5 Senses" tour I arranged for her in London earlier in the year.
      Touring NZ without a care in the world.
      Lunch on the Orient Express en route to Stratford-upon-Avon.
      And the best to come in April '09, getting married in the Ice Hotel in Sweden :-)

      3) The best thing you have ever eaten

      500g Sirloin Waygu served at the Hereford Beefstouw in Göteborg

      4) The best thing you have ever owned

      Mrs BGG's heart :-)

      5) The happiest period of your life

      July 21st 1990 onwards....the day we met....
      Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

        My stag do was pretty well up there - brilliant effort lads.
        2) The most romantic moment of your life
        The moment the wedding vows were completed, and the pastor said the 'you may now kiss the bride' thing and we snogged for a little longer than we probably should have done.
        3) The best thing you have ever eaten
        When my sister and I received our 'A' level grades, dad took us out for a meal in the best restaurant in the county, probably in the region. Will never forget that melt-in-the-mouth tender fillet steak medallion with pate, crushed peppercorns and sauce. Delicious. Damn, hungry now.
        4) The best thing you have ever owned
        My first proper camera, a brick of a fully manual Zenit E. Built like a tank, the best SLR to start with IMHO. No bells or whistles, just solid Russian engineering and optics.
        5) The happiest period of your life
        Right now.

            That's what I keep telling her.

              Are you really that romantic or are you after something from the missus?

                  1990 to the present day, he must have a good imagination, or recall of scenes from pornos
                  The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

                  But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

                      Oi !



                      We resemble that remark !

                      Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
