Will I know the answers by 60?

I thought the blokes disappeared into the shed to get away from the wimin.
I do feel like I am an invader sometimes. too bad.
I just find this thread has a bit more humour that the general run-o-the-mill knitting threads around the place, even though I do that too.(Knit I mean)

[echnidna]

dunno about that Tealady,
I'll take yer word fer it,
I don't frequent knitting forums

[astrid]

yes, the males on this forum vastly outweigh the females,
just as in any group there are fewer leaders than followers.
we all have valuable contributions and with luck and goodwill, learn from one another.
I love chewing the fat with most of the guys (male and female) here.
and light hearted digs here and there are taken in good jest.

when we ask to turn the background pink ( with nice little flowery bits)
then you can worry.

And no you can't borrow my flowery screwdriver!!!


And even I have knowledge. Who else knew about walking stick cabbages for instance?

[Carry Pine]

Tea lady be careful.

I haven't even mentioned:

* Using my marples chisels to tidy up grouting in the laundry

* Somehow tying scout knots in every extension cord that ever leaves the garage

* Wanting (demanding) to speak at the most inoportune times (even during glue-ups)

Aha!

Ive got it,
Your talking about your kids!
Re the glue up problem, ask them to hold the bloo dy clamps in place while their talking

Try them using your chisels for tent pegs

See Greg!! It weren't the wimin's fault.

[Greg Ward]

Yeah sure....

If we didn't have wimmin, we wouldn't have the problem with kids either and there would be no juvenile delinquents, no problems with graffiti and Carry would have a very calm and peaceful life.

I mean it's the wimmin that makes the kids innit?

Ummmm! Yeah Greg!

World would soon be nice and peaceful, that's for sure!!

[Carry Pine]

And what about the mystery person at my house who will probably be the next heavyweight champion of the world. This person turns off the cold tap in the laundry and I use all my strength with both hands to turn it on again. I know it can't be SWMBO because she's a female... but who can it be?

Carry Pine

[astrid]

Maybe the one who dosent know how to change a washer?
Or the water authority fairy.
And of course without wimmin you wouldnt need to turn the tap on or off because there would be no drought.

Astrid

[Greg Ward]

Any male associated with wimmen knows about droughts........

Droughts are caused by wimmen .......as well as every other problem


Greg

[astrid]

And we all know that wimmin caused
global warming (hairdryers you know)
WW 1 and 2 (Eva braun wanted to live in an english cottege with roses over the porch)
Sliced white bread ( got sick of baking it themselves)

The list just goes on and on!!
Someone should do somthing about them quick or theyll ban woodworking on sunday

I think every one should be put right on this point. The drought was caused by my husband who always falls asleep in the shower. Now we have off peek hot water it takes ages for it to run out. In our old house you had to be quick washing hair or still have shampoo in your hair and only cold water.

All other problems I'm sure I could pin on him somehow. Then the rest of us can be guilt free.
