Ok here's my new script

Plum says BIL I want to look at some pictures of my friend on fbook can I use your account

BIL says yes.

BIL then has to add me as a friend to be able to see my pics

BIL thinks wow she's a stunner

A romance develops

We live happily ever after

Freakoid. Maybe thats how we all meet is at your wedding to Plums BIL

Oh yes! good idea CC Plum can make the cake too

Dusted upstairs, the dc room has a ceiling fan which I've ignored til now (3 months ), decided to give it a flick over and clouds of dust and fluff filled the room. Disgusting! Am having a sit down to recover!

PMSL Freak

I love birth stories too!
