A Quick Update

Sorry for the lack of blog activity of late but something quite remarkable has happened in my life.

Have I won a new car? No, it’s better than that. Have I won the lottery? No, it’s better than that. I have, thanks to Match.com, finally got a girlfriend!

I’m still in a bit of a daze at the moment as, unlike my previous Match.com friends, the lady in question phones me, sends me text messages and actually gets quite excited when we’re due to meet. She is beautiful, intelligent and a jolly happy person to be around, and whenever I think of her, I can’t help but smile. It’s quite safe to say that I think we’re a perfect match!

Naturally, I still get worried about things, but then again I’m a bit of a worrier who worries when there’s nothing to worry about. Even after spending the night together, I’m still worried that it’s about to fall apart around my ears. Mind you, after all of the bad luck I’ve had in my life, I guess it’s going to take a while before I calm down, stop worrying and enjoy it all.

Anyway, must dash, I’m due to pick my girlfriend up and take her out for a meal (now, I never thought I’d be saying that on here!)

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Shower

I've really gone up market and highbrow this month and rather than the usual magazine tat I buy (and before you jump to any conclusions, no, they do not contain naked ladies in various poses) for a change I opted for a copy of GQ Magazine. That and the fact I had a voucher to get the latest copy for a mere £1 as apposed to the standard shelf price of £3.70

So far, it's been an interesting read. Once I'd managed to flip through the twenty or so pages of adverts, including the freeing - on to the floor - of hundreds of inserts for bank loans, aftershave and free samples of shampoo, I actually arrived at some proper content. It was the joke page.

So, in honour of said magazine, I feel I must share with you a rather funny observational joke that appeared – rather unsurprisingly – on their hallowed jokes page:

How to Shower Like a Woman

1. Take off clothes & place them sectioned in a laundry basket according to colour
2. Walk into the bathroom wearing dressing gown
3. If you see boyfriend along the way, cover up any exposed areas
4. Look at your physique in the mirror, make mental note to do more leg-lifts etc.
5. Get in the shower
6. Use face cloth, arm cloth, leg cloth, long loofah, wide loofah & pumice stone
7. Wash your hair once with cucumber & sage shampoo with 43 added vitamins

17. Return to bedroom wearing long dressing gown & towel on head
18. If you see boyfriend along the way, cover up any exposed areas
19. Spend 40 minutes drying hair with a hand-held jet engine
