    Sorry, chaps, I'd love to contribute but I haven't got the time - I've got to do the washing up, then take the wife to Sainsbury's, and then write a thesis on what we blokes can do better than women. So far, the only thing I've come up with is the ability to wee in a milk bottle. Sorry, got to go.......she's calling again!!!!

    I think your membership needs close scrutiny!
    Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your tv, follow fashion, act normal, obey the law and repeat after me: "I am free."

    Be careful, he sounds Welsh to me, boyo.

    I'm not sure whether it's the name or the Cymru dragon.

    And I’m from the inferno!
    It’ 35 deg here (I’m doing my best to speak the native metricnomist language) with 80% relative humidity.

    Welcome to the asylum Dafydd. I spent some time on your website and I am impressed. Your work is exceptional. I read that Dafydd “…has an eye for the odd, the unusual, the quirky, the slightly off the wall, anything that might well raise a small smile.”

    You'll fit in quite well here.

    They all have that look, "Yep, he's went the way of his dad". Is he able to squander the countries money or can he just kill you slowly with boredom?

    If you will give me the order, General Jocky, Sir, I will check out this dafy, chap or lass, to ensure that he/she can indeed wee in a bottle....

    If you are on the up and up, sir, I can give you at least 5 things that a man can do better than a woman...
    1. The first, is why most women want a man...they make more money
    2. They are cheaper and more fun than a sperm bank
    3. They can pull the cord of gasoline operated lawn equipment.
    4. They can get things from the attic crawl space.
    5. They are the first line of defense when something scary is outside the house or a large spider is on the ceiling...

    If only the men I've dated had these skills, most of them only excelled at fixing their hair. Although, I do love beautiful hair, so I suppose that's alright.

    My apologies for the wimpish posts earlier, I'd been at the metal polish - strained through a sock, of course. In reality, I am the boss in our household, and I've got her permission to say so!

    Did you find the special offer on Marigolds? Sainsbury's are so good on cleaning products -er according to Mrs P that is.

    Yes, dammit, they didn't have pink! To go with my eyes, you understand, after having consumed blokey amounts of Aur Cymru Welsh whisky. I buy a bottle every time the Welsh Rugby XV win a Grand Slam. I don't seem to buy much, these days!!

    It's also amazing what macho sculptures you can make with a handful of Fairy Liquid bubbles and a cereal bowl - my neighbour, Bert, tells me!

    That's more bloody like it!

    Now that you've regained your manliness, I'll be expecting you lend a hand when we pull the 457 out of the Falcon this arvo and jack it into a Toyota Starlet. After that, I have three cubic metres of concrete to mix & barrow.

    Lucky you don't buy it after wins over the All Blacks. There'd only be three blokes in all Wales who remember what it tastes like.

    I haven't found all 5 in any one man either; I, also value beautiful hair and body above a challenging intellect...I fight my own spiders, call the police on scary strangers and buy electric lawn equipment. I don't care so much about the sperm bank as long as they're always open for business

    I guess you're a good bloke, the true test is the marigolds, only men will plant them instead of a nice rose or chrysanthemum. I also have to commend you on a beautiful avatar and your subtle self promotion

    You will have to write a column for that...particularly the plasticware; or do people do plastic ware in the UK. I can never get the spagetti sauce stains out of the Gladware.
