Man to partner: It's a lovely day for a walk in the park...
Woman: It is, but there are lots of other things we must do today.

Man: like what?
Woman: well, for one thing, I need to check all the use-by dates of things in the fridge.

Suddenly my day of nappy changes and playing trains seemed much less dull Grin

Any good eaves-dropping round your way?

I once saw 2 women having a drunken argument outside a nightclub. As they were being dragged apart, one spat over her shoulder 'and don't think you'll be borrowing my henry-hoover again!'

Hen I was doing the big Xmas food shop in Tescos before Christmas, I was in the cider aisle, and a lady 'no not apple cider i want proper cider' - what does she think traditional cider is made from?!

Two teenage boys.

1: "Mate, i'm telling yoi, you're wrong"

2: "how can i be? A duck is not a bird mate. It's like a bird, but not a bird".

1: "its like a bird cos it is a bird!"

2: "but it swims. Birds don't swim, they fly"

1: "'it swims'??!! Well, it's not a fucking fish is it?!"

2: " no. But it's not a bird either".

Made my week.

I nipped into the Co-op on Christmas Eve and two women were debating bottles of fizz. Their problem centred on every time they bought a "nice" bottle it was horribly dry and you'd think it'd be nicer for the money it cost.

I was itching to tell them to just buy the Lambrini and be happy that they liked lower price bracket wine.
