    Of course. So you are married because of God? Not that I was suggesting that your wife may have played a part on it.

    Hey maybe this isnt such a bad idea after all , any loaded chicks with a few million to burn ... please email me.



    I can’t be bothered to miss you anymore
    Month twelve, day thirty-one and hour twenty-four
    I used to think if missed hard enough you’d come back for sure
    I can’t be bothered now to miss you anymore

    When you skipped town I was such a mess
    So I found some things to do instead
    Trick is to find something to occupy your mind
    Now I spend most days chasin’ mine

    And I can’t be bothered to miss you anymore
    Month twelve, day thirty-one and hour twenty-four
    I used to think if missed hard enough you’d come back for sure
    I can’t be bothered now to miss you, I’m not cuddling up to kiss you
    And I can’t be bothered now to miss you anymore

    One of my fav politcal quotes was from Ron Reagan , he mentioned that they say that politics is the second oldest profession.

    But the more I look at it, it seems to be more like the oldest profession itself.

    Sure nuff Ron.

    Doesn't Gerry Adams pop in now and again, to pick up his pay cheque?

    It does seem truer than ever that the only person who has entered Parliament with honourable intentions was Mr. Fawkes.

    And it probably doesnt help that men have always been the main bread winners...so of course its going to be men who are taken to the cleaners.

    Then again, I cant wait for the case where a man takes a woman to the cleaners!

    But seriously

    why does the go-vermin-t hate the traditional family?
    Why give faggots the 'right' to civil-partnerships?
    Why give co-habitees the 'right' to divorce settlements?
    What is it they dislike? Is it just a 1984-style divide and conquer policy?
    The more this government does, the more obvious it becomes that they're all loathsome scummy individuals with a seemingly open agenda of destroying society,
    It does seem truer than ever that the only person who has entered Parliament with honourable intentions was Mr. Fawkes.

    I tend to think that the reason why many marriages fail is because of people's bad attitude towards it. Surely if you believe that it will fail, that women are gold diggers with no conscience, it certainly will. So yes, there is always the option of not getting married but if you have to get married with divorce in mind then it's better not to. Moreover, if you think about the money you squander when you are in a couple, the money that goes for the divorce is a pretty short percentage. So then, better not to be in a couple at all.

    Aye Ladz

    Guess I will remain a Batchelor Boy.

    Was chatting up a bird at work the other day.

    She mentioned she had been married before, then started to blab on about kids she would like to have,then the coup de grace was to mention that she had worked in HR before.

    Before you could say Shock and Awe AJP had scuttled off on the pretext that he had to urgently go shopping for a toaster.

    There are loads of reasons if you’re a woman. It seems pretty consistent that divorced women I know want to get married again but not one man wants to.
