Seems she's having second thoughts about our joint visit to the UK early next year.
In which case, you could be my "temporary" wife for the duration of my visit.
I am particularly attracted by your claim to be "inexpensive to maintain".

Quite apart from your scintillating wit, obvious charm and good looks - of course.


How am I going so far ?
It's 50/50 ... keep going the flattery is pleasant and I appreciate honesty

That is reassuring to know.

I have never won a cent with a PB. In fact we have some purchased way back from the 1960's , when a pound would buy 5 gallons of petrol.
For me the most naff investment ever.

My late father always said it was a good idea to cash in your bonds and re-apply.

He must have read that somewhere. I have done it a few times over the years.
