These are really over-priced, I think... All the bags I like +£50 :-/Quote:

He didn't feel fulfilled [egotistic] unless and until he was relieving that poor female of her burden! Virginia Woolf knew exactly what men are like!
And they're still like this!
Sometimes I ask my husband for help just to make him happy. I do the same with the boys now that I think of it. I'll loosen a new jar and act like I can't open it then ask them if they could do it for me because I'm just not strong enough. Sometimes they just need to be the hero.
I just wish I'd had some man to carry my bags today, for they were quite heavy and I had to carry them all the way from the parking lot to the third floor where I live (and make several journeys because I couldn't get them all at once) :DQuote:

They can teach you how to lift heavy things?
Most jobs that involve lifting do manual handling courses to show you how to lift weight properly to prevent hurting your back JW. :) When i was an archaeologist, i had to do an actual safety course before i could work on a site.
Yup health and saftey courses we actually had one where they stood us in a rrow siad right see that? That window-wall thing ( its a seventies shoebox bilding with a glass frnt ) is glass dont try and walk through it - that will hurt! back to work now :rolleyes:

I got to help a man with physics last time I was at work. He was trying to calculate how far a cannon ball would fly if it was shot at a certain direction at a certain speed, but I had to help him understand the equation :p
Yippee, three years of agony in physics class in upper secondary school didn't go to waste after all :banana:
:redface: I never thought about that! I always want to do things by myself :lol: I guess this might explain why one of my friend gets a bit annoyed when I wear the bags while shopping... I might remember this and give in when he offers to take them, next time :pQuote:

A celtic themed wedding... that could be fun :D
On what to wear:
Can't you use some accessories to make it "celtic themed"? I have no idea what's in your closet, but maybe you could put something together like the girl left (green sarong) on this site. Though of course the question rises whether that's fit for a wedding... Maybe "just" an "unthemed" dress you already have with a belt with celtic crosses and a special hairdo...
Any idea how much efforts other people that are going put into it? I mean, I once went to a wedding in jeans without being out of place... ;)
Wedding present:
I never know what to get either... Do they like to read? Why not a book about a famous "celtic" love affair? :p It has to end well, of course ...
