....chatting to a friend and joking that after all these years of being single there must be someone out there for me???

Conversation then moved to larking about...and the fatal question "Is there such a thing as mail order husbands?"

Yes me dears there is indeed:
Take a look but mind your eyes, now!

So, I did the compatibility test and my soul mate is Hans from Germany who says:

'"German sailor seeks mermaid".. During my long hours out at sea I often wonder if my soulmate is near or far. I have been successful at werk but not in love. Yes, I've had too much schnitzel but I have a sexy attitude and I'm not shy about my body.'

Lucky me!!

Oh, this is good! (if it were real it would be even better, but very funny nonetheless). I intend to lose 20 lbs by 3pm, too.

This has to be a spoof. No one could really be thinking they'd make money out of this, because no sane woman would ever express an interest in these fellas ... would they?! And there's an ad on the site saying, 'Lose 20 pounds in a day!' Says it all.

Makes my ex look saintly.

Do you think Philip is wanted in Canada?

"I'm lonely, how about you? I live in a crappy basement apartment and I'm hoping to go somewhere warm and sunny. If you have money and you aren't in Canada please email me. "

I've told DH that if he gets too much into meat ships (thank you to whoever posted that link!) he'll end up on this mail order website!!!
