    That's an excellent pic. The other was a bit posed for my taste.

    Just stay away from those candid shots, or we'll have Mick having a heart attack!

    In the original photo, I went to the shop, the photographer asked me to remove my top in a room that I was sure had a few cameras...he asked me to say "cheese" for some of the photos; then look the other way and say "sex"...the "sex" photos came out best
    For this photo, I went to a dingy little shop that advertised passport photos for $6.00; a hunchbacked fellow with coke-bottled glasses said "just stand there and don't move"....all considered, it didn't come out half bad..

    You'd go well with Pam Corkery!

    She is an ex-MP who has decided that girls need fun too and is opening a male-for-female brothel in Auckland. Their standards must be ok, because they haven't called me yet.

    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."

    Well thats 31 years of marriage (to the same woman) as of today. What happened to that young thrusting couple of yesteryear, who laughed so confidently at life's great adventure? who together rode the troughs and heights of fortune with naive relish.?

    Life! mate ,thats what happened.

    The last two years have been the most demanding, because the kids have all left home and so we have to start talking to each other again. Its difficult to pick up a conversation 30 years after being rudely interrupted by the arrival of offspring.

    If I'm reading you right mate, then Happy Anniversary!
    My God, 31 years of wedded blitz!

    Good effort mate!

    I got married in 1979 as well.

    I just happened to get divorced from her in 1981.

    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."

    I'm thinking of starting a "Perfect Dad" blog, mainly because I found the perfect opening for it:

    Standing in the kitchen, surrounded by shards of broken glass from a jar dropped on the tiles - preparing baby's breakfast - while being called from the bathroom where the sick kid has just had a bout of diarrhea in the shower.

    I think that's a great idea. Of course the ladies would have the perfect mum thread just like our cold ale/ coffe threads. They'd probably make comments about multi-tasking and organisational superiority, whilst we'd regale each other with tales of winging it that went well.

    I presume all turned out ok. The shower's quite a good place for a swill down. Better than all over the carpet/ rug/ tiger skin etc.

    Paul is right. Tell the one with the jitters to bear up and swish it down the drain with their feet.
    As for the pampered one being fed out of glass jars, start using canned food.
    "Wolf Brand Chili" was just fine for our little tike.
