ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

If you had to work as hard as him!!!!!!

Oh Milky ..this should really have been a blog as you capture poor Ray in all his sleeping modes can just see it now Ray asleep on holiday ..Ray asleep at wedding ...the list seems endless lol

Oh bless, so tired he didn't even finish his drink! You really must help him more, Milky :)

You see Maureen, these men just dont having the 'staying power', lol. Did he stay awake long enough to read his paper, lol.

Toto.....I do work as hard as him............all he did was clear his shed. the mess he made, while I did the washing made him lunch , weeded the veggie patch and the borders, and he "cleaned his shed" We run around after you men all the time..........Dawn is right .....no staying power..........he he he he work up at 5 and wanted his dinner and he is asleep again now .............

These men take some looking after Maureen!! I do envy Ray though, wish I was that laid back, literally, ha ha.

there he goes again,, poor ray so hard worked... like men work so much harder than us milky..NOT.. we have to multi-task,, they cant do that,, well maybe in his dreams milky lol

Has Baz succumbed to his sleep yet San, after his hard day/

Yes Sanbaz....in his dreams...................Lol

lol dawn,, is slowely slumping on sofa dont think it will be long now

lol milky,, well im so suprised i got my deck so soon, normally has to ponder and think and plan and think and plan .....lol

This endless planning must be a 'man' thing San. I think to myself - Just Do It, lol.

lol im the same,, i just know what i want and go for it,, its deffo a man thing dawn,, maybe they think we will change our minds if they stall us

Probs San :)) Is he asleep yet?

Oh you ladies - I want a pond how hard can it be to dig a hole ?

yep lol,,, well gone,, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Ha ha Bonkers: We love you men really :)) Especially when we need some muscle!

Hi Ray.....nice to see you again......looking a little more sun-tanned since last time, how long have you been there???? Lol!

Like forever...........Janey...............I work around him...Lol

Nice one Janey, I'm smiling here, lol. Actually, I think he was facing the other way before and on a different lounger, lol.

Aww Dawn cracked on with the pond and by passed the planning stage been repairing it ever since !

so funny janey,,,, poor ray dont half get some stick

so it is a man thing bonkers,,,, the vital planning

Not half as much as he gets from me.......................he he he ................

Oh right Ray, so the planning is probably a good thing. Have you found the leak yet?

Yes ladies the planning essential - never heard of PP leading to PPP ?

A note to Bonkers.....about the pond thing..... We have had the bricks and blocks sitting here since middle of last year to make a raised pond......He cant make up his mind where...........every couple of weeks it changes. Just doesnt want the hassle really.............Thats why he wont move paths for me.............

i men will do it their way and we will do it ours,, the quick way

think it calls for an executive discision milky,, that means your the boss so you decide :o)

Another picture of the" Great British Snoozer" we may seek him here, we may seek him there, but you will only find him in his chair....lol

Wheres Toto when you need him ? Aww Milky bet Ray would move heaven and earth for you if push came to shove .. in defense of men sometimes we recognise things may be a bit beyond us but paying someone is either impractical or an insult ... so we postpone start things that we cant finish thinking that may keep you ladies happy .

Of course it doesnt ... I ve got a list of things I havent done with no recognition of the things I have so in no hurry to add to it !

lol dotty,, good one

i always make a big fuss of baz when he makes something special for me,,, he knows im always happy with what he does even though i joke about it

You are a bit out numbered Ray, lol. However, in your defence, I think you men want to get everything perfect or you worry people will criticise. My Dad always used to say, people are always happy to find fault but not so eager to give you a pat on the back.

Very out numbered Dawn but we struggle on cos deep down we love you ..
not good at saying it so we try to do practical things ..your Dad so right when asked my father if his father ever in his life told him he loved him his eyes filled with tears ...how sad is that ? So please go easy on us men .. we re not as hard as we like to think.

Aww Ray - I have a tear in my eye now :( So sad isnt it. They also say the hardest word is Sorry ..... I'll remember what you've told me tonight! x

Hi milky,this time You and your camera were very quick to catch the scene,yeah.

Sorry Bonkers. Can't think where I was when this assault started. It's that Essex Girl trying to stir it again. Have you ever noticed a man writing about all he has to do at home? Anyway, I can't say about anyone else but I paid seven shillings and sixpence for mine so a little help around the place should be expected. Could have got a dog licence for the same money and they don't answer back.

LOL . Hilarious . made my day :o)

Hahahahaha Milky I can't stop Laughing...

Oh my goodness........I didnt realise what an onslaught this would bring on............What can I say............Ray goes to work......he doesnt have to, but he want to ....but when he is home he does not expect to lift a finger.............my fault.......probably.............

well as long as you are both happy it doesnt matter and you at least have a joke about it, im sure you both do milky

Course we are Sanbaz ....as long as he does as he is told he he he

great,, yes we are the same,, he thinks he is the boss but i know differant lol

Thats my girl.....!!!!!

Typical women. So disillusioned. If Ray shortened your chain between the sink and your ankle you would have to stay in your place. You do realise that the reason that women have smaller feet than men is so that they can get closer to the sink!

ha ha thats such an old one toto lol,

He he Toto and the reason we have bigger feet is cos we keep putting them in it !

very true bonkers,,lol

Don't give them ammunition Bonkers, They have enough already.

Aye Toto have learnt to accept I m wrong even when I m right cos then Im wrong for being right unless of course I was wrong in the first place then I m right for being wrong . You got any room in that shed left .. ?

so funny you two,, cant be that bad because your both having a joke about it,, in the end women and men will never think the same and thats what makes life more interesting dont you think,,, think about your answer before you type lol

What ..Sanbaz a man that thinks ? never had a lady accuse me of that before ... Its OK for Toto he has a shed to retreat to filled with wasps and spiders which I expect guarantees a certain amount of solitude !..I d love to join him but my chain doesnt extend that far.

I can't wait for Milky's reply, lol. Hope you men are prepared, lol.

lol,,, so funny,, but you said it,, men dont think,, your right there,,well not about things that matter,,,i think its just about men wanting a quiet life , we as women have to think or nothing would get solved

Well obviously Ray must be awake at the moment Dawn as Milky craftily waits for the poor chap to nod off .. I m beginning to think she slips something into his food or drink might expain why he never got to finish the one in the pic ...as for a quiet life Sanbaz I ve looked through my manual and operating instructions for women says can be noisy and expensive to maintain !

ha ha ha ,, your on the ball today bonkers.....does it say comes with a sharpe tongue to ,,,,

Oh yes .. ideal for those cutting remarks had a few nicks in my time and if this continues likely to get a few more ...lol

lol,,, i think most of us have had that,,, men and women,, i must say im alot calmer as im getting older,,, just like a quiet life now,,,

He he Ok San - on a more serious note think Baz did a great job with the decking and actually you re really quite proud of him.. and thats what enables us to joke as if we ever thought any of us truly serious ..

i am proud of him, been married just over a year and together 4 years, he is the best thing that happened to me, spent 12 years on my own raising my boys and now its my time, mind you i still do alot for the boys and my extended family to,, just a mum thing i guess :o)

Good luck to you both your happiness together shines through your comments .. think I d better stop there or Toto will think I ve gone completely soft lol

ok lol thanx bonkerbon :o) promise i wont say a word shhhh

Aww BB, you prove you are a real man by saying nice things like that :-)
How is Baz's back today Sandra?

hi dawn he is doing ok, alot better in fact, but as im so good i let him rest yet another day lol

Good idea, more rest the better and why not, its a Bank Hol. How's Blackpool - horrible here and really cold - had the central heating on, rained all morning so didnt venture into the greenhouse, too cold, brrr

yes same here dawn, had to put heating on and lots of rain, just did my shopping and a nice roast dinner,, thats it really, just hope it bucks up so i can get back into garden

Me too, visited Mum this morning, ordered some plants online, got dinner as John's at work tonight (6pm to 6am) yuk. Unusual for you and I to have a day off then - I think we deserve it.

yes quite right, baz back to work 2moz so i will cath up with some ironing then see my older son for lunch, then take it from there depending on weather,,love having baz off but tend to get behind on housework etc

I'll send you some bolt croppers and then you can join me in my shed. I know what you mean about being wrong. I was wrong once, thinking that I was wrong when infact I was right all the time. I know your not soft Bonkers, just careful.

Thanks Dawn - do have a soft spot for the ladies but enough of my medical problems ..cheers Toto I d invite you to mine but its only an old outside toilet complete with tin bath but can certainly guarantee plenty of creepy crawlies .

I don't need a bath at he moment thanks Bonkers. Had one sometime last year so not due yet.

You dirty ol devil Toto.....you could at least take up Bonkers's offer......

Don't you know there's a water shortage Milky. I'm doing my bit for conservation.

You take it easy Ray, after all we're only men.

Exactly....your only men.................'nough said he he he
