OMG you\'re a born again domestic. I live alone and haven\'t ironed a shirt in probably twenty years. I don\'t even think about it. You\'re an exceptionally brave chap picking up one of those hot things. Great idea to write about it and love the way you present it.

Try whistling at the same time just to prove that men can do two things at the same time and finally dispose of this nonsensical myth once and for all.

It may pass quicker if we have something else on at he same time - telly or radio, or some music, etc.
I thought you meant watching \'Neighbours\' at first. That never goes away. We\'re condemned to it. I refuse on principle to watch any programme with someone named \'Toadfish\' in it! heehee.

Why Her, Why?
Michael Edwards said:

I can see she has all the love and support that she could possibly wish for and as much as I feel for her I also feel for you - such a difficult and unforgiving illness. your poem so well sums up how you must feel - my heart goes out to you.

orchidee said:

I think of you both, and pray for you both, hoping I don\'t \'spiritualise away\' situations. Of course, it\'s easy to believe when all is going smoothly and cosily.

How far can we go, with things in hymns, such as \'Sight, riches, healing of the mind / Yea, all I need in Thee to find\' as the hymn-writer put it?
I believe she had times of poor health. (Charlotte Elliott).
Prayer is always \'worth a try\' at least, though you probably know that (and do so).

Goldfinch60 big sympathy m8 with this horrible affliction eating at the foundations of your relationship. Your words are those of a considerate loving partner. Anyone who\'s come into contact with this beast know only too well the truth of your words, especially those of last 5 lines. Its a well expressed piece from the heart.

A fine write G/F. Of course, when on the sherry, every word of mine is meaningless! Just leave Orchi alone at those times, he means well, but he dunno what year it is when he\'s on the sherry - must be 1066, he says\'! heehee.

PEACE? - Acrostic.

This makes the point so well - we seem to be going backward - will we ever learn?.

Thanks Brian. Over the years I have written many acrostics.

I too would like to Give Peace a Chance.

BRIAN & ANGELA said:

WOW ANDY ~ You have broken the mould today ~ AN ACROSTIC and you didn\'t register it with me first ! Also a TRIBUTE to John Lennon ~ Liverpool\'s greatest SON and one of the WORLD\'S finest Sons ~ Forever Young ~ Forever preaching MAKE LOVE NOT WAR The sad fact is ANDY ~ MAN (& WOMAN) is nver satisfied and will always fight with HIS (HER) neighbour for a bit of land or high fence privacy ! Ever since ADAM fell out with EVE (over snakes & apples) there have been WARS & RUMOURS of WARS ~ So help us GOD ~ All I am saying is give PEACE a CHANCE ~ BRIAN

Goldfinch you said a lot in these four lines. And John Lennon is one of my alltime heroes. Heck, at my age, I grew up with the Beatles!
And unfortunately as of now it is still a myth that the earth is calm. And I don\'t think it will change in my lifetime. But I do have hopes that one day somewhere in the future, that calm will prevail.

Nicholas Browning said:

Hatred is a cycle that has revolved as far back as time\'s first record. Now, it\'s almost as if we have to look out for ourselves in this dark and malicious place. I do what I can for other people, even though I know I can\'t break this cycle alone. Good message Finch. It is indeed the truth.
