Guest Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 Well said Sheila I'm very sensitive about that, being an at-home mother. Because I work from home too, people think I sit around drinking tea all day. If only I had time to do that even once a week! But I do have time for other people when they need me. Today I have visited a friend who is very recently bereaved and I will continue to see her every week for as long as she needs me. It's great to have time to do that!

The Dogmother Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 I'm sorry if I caused any offence ladies - none was intended at all. I thought that he was skiving off! I wish that I was able to do at least a part of my job from home; I do resent being office-bound. I used to have a job where I could works from home, and i got loads more done than in the office with it's constant interruptions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesley Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 ...and grd can have an 'improper' job when he gets round to modelling those boxers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 They still haven't arrived yet! Which I guess prompts the question, do they have to be Omlet pants? How about Tesco own-brand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 Well, personally I'd say do you need the pants at all??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Frugal Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 I'm shocked Lesley! It's these quiet ones you've got to watch!! Go for Tesco pants, grd! It'll be a lot quicker!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 Any particular colour? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 Funnily enough, I was browsing the mens pants in Tescos this evening ! I think as Simon modelled white pants that you should do the same. I mean if you chose black, it would give a totally different look, wouldn't it and we wouldn't be able to judge if you had the better bottom. To be completely fair to Simon of the Bottom, you really need to wear white pants too . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 Me in black pants? That's got me thinking of Little Britain.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 No grd, that picture won't do! Get those pants on and take the picture - no clenching mind! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheilaz Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 Clare, I wasn't offended either I just agree with what Sheila said. I wasn't offended either, Clare, didn't mean to sound prickly, just that some people are at home doing the hardest jobs of all. So, no one is offended, and we're neatly back on topic (pants) with grd's gorgeous photo. As a fair competition, I think it would have to Omlet boxers for all. Material (cotton, wood, or Lycra ) would make a difference to the shape. Oh, and thickness of material too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 That's good, we're all happy - now egt those boxers kate and send them to grd. James needs a rocket for not sending them yet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liz Steed Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 I wonder how many times the legendary Simon looks at these posts a day!!
