There might be some truth in that. The first bit. Apparently it all started when she was away on business for an extended period.While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.' -

If he wants to be cured, then he should seek help from maybe his GP, or sex-addicts anonymous (if such a thing exists).

At first it's great, but after years and years of just you favourite biscuit there comes a time when your favourite biscuit turns into just another fvckin biscuit!Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.
I preferred version 1!Comment
