This aft dw took the kiddies out for a couple of hours,so I cracked on making a curry for tea( just finished it now burp! pardon me)
While I was cooking I had the wireless on and on came All Night Long by Rainbow so I put a pan on my head and started dancing round the kitchen with it turned up loud(the pan was close at hand on the draining board)
Am I going mad?
Shouldnt I be looking at porn on the computer or trying on her knickers?

Well can I join you he he

MrsSchadenfreude · 17/07/2010 18:45

Any of those perfectly reasonable behaviour from a 44 yr old male, in my view. As long as the pan wasn't such a tight fit that you got it stuck and ended up in casualty!

ladyanon...was just going to say that too!

sapphireblue · 17/07/2010 20:18

were you wearing your batman outfit at the time? If so, YABU. If not, boogy away with your pan.

EccentricaGallumbits · 17/07/2010 20:20

wireless

bullet234 · 17/07/2010 20:21

I still say wireless and I am too young (I think) to be saying anything older than radio. I don't care though, I interchange the words as I like.
Nowt wrong with pan dancing if you want to. It's called being harmlessly silly.

Wireless is a good word that should be used more

but it has wires.

RunawayWife · 17/07/2010 20:29

This is the man (I THINK) who calls his penis Kevin or Ken!!!!

EnglandAllenPoe · 17/07/2010 20:31

i though the'd changed it to 'Magnum' in the hope that would make it somerthing a grown woman would wish to put near her mouth...

moggiek · 17/07/2010 20:32

LOL, sounds completely reasonable (although the track is a bit modern for me)!!Hawkwind's Silver Machine always has me reaching for the Prestige ....

It's reasonable behaviour from you but I don't think that answers your question.

southeastastra · 17/07/2010 21:17

were the members of rainbow well known for wearing pans on their head?

Mommy2BubbanHun · 17/07/2010 21:20

What is a man your age doing in the kitchen?

Haven't you got a shed? You should be out there building your own "wireless".

glittery · 17/07/2010 21:22

oh i would have had a dance about to All Night Long too although think the pan would have been better used as an air guitar!

Alambil · 17/07/2010 23:14

I hope you don't have le creuset pans - you'd need a strong neck with one of those on your head

AnyFuleKno · 17/07/2010 23:15

YABU, who the hell are rainbow?

AnyFuleKno · 17/07/2010 23:16

If it were the Lionel Richie version then fair enough.
