Bit of everything

[nineveh_uk]

If this morning’s hideous bus journey – over-crowded, windows closed, hot and smelly and full of teenage language students behaving as if they’re on a school trip coach – cannot persuade me to walk to work tomorrow, nothing can.

After a week in Leeds wearing my ski jacket in the rain and many, many tryings-on, I have finally brought a proper mac. It is fantastic, albeit probably best not worn with a black beret.

Meme seen round about:

Give me a pairing (original or fic) and I will tell you at least two of:
1. What they most commonly do during sex
2. Who has prettier hair
3. What they argue about most often
4. Who'd cope best if the other one died
5. The happiest plausible happily-ever-after I can think of for them.

Thank you! Yeah, they'd have gotten together before even _The Well of Loneliness_ and its one line of non-instructiveness ("That night they were not divided").

I suppose it's not too likely they'd be reading back issues of The Medical Times and Register: see http://books.google.com/books?id=2dpXAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA9. Cologne bottles, forsooth.

Oh dear. They must have been embarrassing consultations. Though I am sure I read a newspaper article that suggested "Doctor, I fell over and landed on a broom handle" continues to be said by both sexes.

"With a silk umbrella and the handle of a broom,
Boomlay, boomlay, boomlay, BOOM!"
