Dear MNHQ, have you thought of upgrading your slates to wax tablets? They smash less often and will enable techius to concentrate on other things.

They are building an aqueduct next to my villa and some bloke called Offa is asking the council to construct a 'dyke'. Should D'us H'us complain or AIBU?

LadySybildeChocolate · 26/08/2012 22:28

EngeldinkHumpabert · 26/08/2012 22:24

Is it lower class to not have an en-suite vomitorium?

LadySybildeChocolate · 26/08/2012 22:23

KeemaNaanAndCurryOn · 26/08/2012 22:23

Sheela I heard that a Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum though? Wouldn't risk it. Wink

EngeldinkHumpabert · 26/08/2012 22:20

Is it me or do the Praetorian Guards get younger......

Jamdoughnutfiend · 26/08/2012 22:20

I have just been to see a villa that is a do-er upper. DH seems to think that we can live as it is, but I hate the mosaics in the grand hall and the lead pipe work needs replacing? Should I sell a couple of slaves and do the work first or live in it a while to see if the mosaics grow on me?

ThisIsNotHoneyDragon · 26/08/2012 22:20

Dh and I want our first Winter festival as a married couple alone. AIBU not invite my DMother and DMiL, especially as they are the same person?

MoonlightandRoses · 26/08/2012 22:18

Book club topic: The Satyricon? A set of good dinner party ideas or bit 'try to hard'?

SheelaNeGig · 26/08/2012 22:17

MN meetup?

I suggest in the forum.

TalcAndTurnips · 26/08/2012 22:17

I found a secret mosaic in my spouse's latrina the other day - it depicts him in a compromising position with a young concubine (and several dolphins).

Should I leave the Spurius?
