For a minimum price of £120 for a nude cleaner or £80 for a fully clothed cleaner, it wouldn't cost much more to hire an escort for an hour.
Good to see it's not just Betfair prices that you keep on top of!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

By the way, don't get naturists and naturalists confused, it's a very easy mistake to make. :)
How do you know that Derek, did you hire a naturalist by accident expecting her to strip down but was surprised when she started giving lessons on art and literature?

I embarrassed myself at a family dinner when I called David Attenborough a naturist. :oops: :lol:

1. can someone please tell me why don’t people indicate at roundabouts anymore?, 2. why do cyclists on pavements wear helmets?
3. why do couriers knock on the door when you’re on the loo?
4. why does the cat do his business in the litter tray when you’re eating?
5. when there’s no answer when you knock on the door when you have a parcel for them, you pop a “sorry you were out card” through the letterbox only for them to answer the door?
6. the landline rings when you’re upstairs only for the frigging thing to stop once you’ve nigh on broken your neck to get down the stairs to answer it?

.. more to follow I’m sure

Nevermind wearing helmets on pavements, why do they need the flipping pavement? And the ones that do use the road take up as much room as a car! I used to cycle from London to Brighton every week, part of the journey was on the busy A23, I was perfectly happy cycling between the kerb and the solid white line just a few inches off the kerb. :)

1. Because people are increasingly becoming inconsiderate...is my overall impression. We've roughly got 1/20 the number of roundabouts here than you guys do, and it's doing my head in over here.
6. You're the only person in this world to still have a landline????


As for the rest, random thoughts and ideas which may apply to some, all, or none.

1. God is real and he's on your case until you get your a*** to church every Sunday
2. Alanis Morrisette is running out of money and is channeling you in order to get another hit about stuff that's not really ironic being ironic
3. Scientology really does give people - of a certain level - deity ability, Tom Cruise has reached those levels, and he still hasn't forgiven you for that 2/10 rating for Mission Impossible 9 on IMDB
4. You've shagged the wife of somebody in higher reaches of the NSA.
5. Life is a box chocolates....

In the UK we don't have a choice - a landline comes with a broadband connection so you may as well attach a phone to it. That said, nobody calls me on my landline and if they did I wouldn't care too much about answering it. :)

I guess you are not aware of people who have poor mobile connections at home. I cannot guarantee a connection good enough for a voice call. Where do I live? Some remote Scottish island ... No. I live in the south east of England just 50 miles from London.

CV19 has shown that our broadband infrastructure is not ready for a "work from home" society.

The coverage of Golf on tv is a joke!

Live coverage of the final day of the Houston Open doesn't begin on Sky until 6pm, even though the leaders teed off at 4pm. There has been coverage of 'featured groups' on tv since 4pm but the featured groups don't include the leaders :shock:

I'm really struggling to understand football traders. Even if it is cross-matching the bets can't be much more than £2!!

We need another monkey in the market control room. It's too much for one to manage.
