DH thnks the men on here are just cruising for affairs. He wont be convinced otherwise.

Cod post on my relationships thread and tell me i am not crazy please.

largeginandtonic · 01/10/2008 11:03

BTW my dh is so attractive i can barely keep my pants on, his not driving does not bother me in the least.

Well except i am always designated driver and can't have more than 1 gin.

Onebatmother - your ex on a segway has made this thread for me.

'Two Princes'? Check? Terrible rock gigs? Check. Inappropriately-haired suitors? Check.

georgimama · 01/10/2008 11:09

Fess up UnquietDad, are you cruising for an affair?

onebatmother · 01/10/2008 11:10

i do feel that I've performed an important public service, Fabio (that is you, ins't it?)

And my world-view has undergone a profound shift.

what is meant by masterful?

onebatmother · 01/10/2008 11:22

in control of something, noddy, but I think some people use it to mean dominant.

NotCod · 01/10/2008 11:23

decisive.

Am just a teensy bit late to this thread, but I'm with Olive on the whole masterful driver thing.

I've never driven dh's car as I'd be crapping myself that I'd crash it. My car is scraped every which way & I don't care.

The odd thing about dh & is car is the number of people who ask him if he's a footballer when he's getting out of it.

FFs, he's nearly 50 and about a stone overweight

NotCod · 01/10/2008 11:25

nice user name

I know, I changed it the other night when I was pissed. Will change it back now if it offends, my little codette.

TheOldestCat · 01/10/2008 11:35

Onebat - no worries; am rather flattered to be mistaken for Fabio.

Swedes · 01/10/2008 11:39

LOL LOL LOL at UQD getting so narky.

I can't stand men who can't spell. It irritates me beyond all reason. For me minger hell would be:

A man who
Can't spell
Can't drive but enjoys riding bitch on a motorbike
Wears small slip-on shoes
Has a moustache thing
Thinks it's reasonable to be asked to be awake fgs while partner breasfeeds at 3am
Reads pregnancy books

In fact Man Heaven and Man Hell deserves another thread, doesn't it?

mumblechum · 01/10/2008 11:47

Ok, so what's man heaven then?

I'm not telling you mine yet as it's not PC enough

noddyholder · 01/10/2008 11:50

I do know what it means to me but i think its differnet for everyone.I am going to think about what it means to me although i do like a man who can carry all the bags at the airport while i swan around the duty free.Is that it?

MorningTownRide · 01/10/2008 11:52

Yeah, have to agree with Obm and TOC.

I loved the Levellers as well....

NotCod · 01/10/2008 12:08

did we ever establuish if uqd and pan are drivers or not

OP posts:
TheOldestCat · 01/10/2008 12:37

Well, there's a simple test apparently, but we need pics and more info about their characters. If they're attractive, they can operate a car/van/other vehicle; if they're not, they are feckless non-drivers

mumblechum · 01/10/2008 12:51

UQD is a well built, reasonably attractive man in his early forties. He has an unfortunate beard and wears socks with his sandals. He wears M&S. He drives a 5 year old Ford Focus.

Pan is a young slip of a 25 year old. He's eithe mixed race or Meditteranean in appearance. He is rather dapper. His suits have contrasting silk linings in amethyst and emerald. He always wears a red carnation in his lapel. Pan drives a BMW 3 series in silver.
