Hi BB

Turkish Delight. You really know how to give a girl a good time!!! Tell her to get well soon. I'll expect to see her in Southampton, if she's recovered. Then she'll see Hampshire/Geordies know how to treat ladies.

With my Sedution Technique, Charm, Good looks....nearly forgot Modesty, she'll be swept off her feet!!!

Of course the phrase "tin of Turkish Delight" may just be a euphemism for some exotic Yorkshire Valentine's Day activity.

If it lasted 15 minutes and ended up with the poor woman clutching her stomach and moaning, it may be worth considering whether to give the wallet a 'tin of Turkish Delight' at the appropriate moment.

:wink:

Ay up!

TD is not a euphorism for anything other than Turkish Delight.

That's an idea for the Wallet, SS! Now - how do I get it past Mrs BB?

Hello, PP

Mrs BB here.

I'm afraid you'll have to get behind the queue. Should I ever trade him in (and he does have his good points) you're behind:

Benedict Cumberbatch

Sean Bean

Harrison Ford

So you've got some competition. Not bothered about the order of the above.....

Hi Mrs BB

If you don't trade him in it'll prove that you're too good for him!!

The other three are not competition - I'm real, they're not!

Regret, my wife will not make my wallet available for photographs.

Perhaps I'm reading too much into the comment from Mr B, but by nominating Erroll Flynn it sounds as if he's suggesting the Dear Lady is getting on in years. A true gent would never suggest this (true or not) !!

Right then (rolls up sleeves and grasps rolling pin frimly by handle).

How sodding old do you lot think I am??

Mrs BB

Hint: think very very carefully before answering this....

PS: BB is now hiding under the couch and gibbering incoherently. No change there, then.

Is PP really harbouring another Yorkshire Wallet? :twisted:

Oh dear, that seems a little aggressive as a opening gambit Mrs BB.

Especially as you have not seen my wallet, which currently has such an enormous bulge that it can scarcely be contained.

I have even pre-ordered a Garratt even though I will have to break a number of rules in order to allow it, however that is but one example of my carefree extravagance.

And believe me, until you have sampled my own home made Turkish Delight, you could be said to have not lived.

Dear Mr Strang

Our client. the infamous Mrs BB. instructs us that she is prepared to show some interest in

a) the size of the buldge in your wallet;

b) the exotic confection to which you allude

and may be prepared to enter into negotiations.

Yours reasonably sincerely (rates upon request)
