The Person Below Me...

[Mrs Ex-Ascot]

True. When I was based at RAF (H ) Ely we used to get together a convoy of cars and go for an evening out at RAF Mildenhall. Bowling alley followed by beers in the Officers Club. Unfortunately one of the regular drivers was a very typical Greek doctor called Stamatis or Stam. Crazy driving with loud Greek music. ......well we survived. .....

TPBM likes Greek music but not their driving!

[Hydromet]

Never experienced Greek driving, but Greek music and dancing, especially when ouzo-enhanced, is no bad thing...until next morning.

TPBM has danced on tables.

[Slasher]

Yes - but only once in my youf during a nighstop at an all-hosties party gone wild. Done a dancing strip tease to Hot Chocolate's 'Everyone's a Winner.' We were all honked something terrible.

TPBM is too young (or too old) to remember who Hot Choclate was.

[Mrs Ex-Ascot]

False

TPBM is in one of the two above age brackets and goes to bed with a mug of hot chocolate

[larsssnowpharter]

True in that I am in one of the two age brackets but false in the chocolate thing.

TPBM never Googled 'Stormy Daniels' as a result of the revelations in US politics.

[Slasher]

False. I googled her to see what she looks like, and judging from her wrinkles, crows feet and hips I'd say I exactly know why she's after more money. Her celluloid days are well and truly over.

TPBM gets tired of constantly being barraged with politics every day.

[Mrs Ex-Ascot]

No, I avoid politics by reading the DM online

TPBM prefers barrage balloons to serious stuff.

[Hydromet]

True, but political balloons are usually full of hot air.

TPBM would not go into politics, because even pilots have some scruples.

[Slasher]

Too true. Even told my little bloke never to have anything to do with it.

TPBM has a 'shoes off' policy before entering their house.

[Mrs Ex-Ascot]

Well I guess so, mainly because I don't wear shoes outside either unless going to Maun or the safari camp upriver.

TPBM has a no clothes policy inside the house.

[Slasher]

True. When the little bloke is at school. Applicable to wife only.

TPBM doesn't sleepwalk.

[Hydromet]

True, but it could be handy if I did. Would mean I didn't have to wake up for the 3 a.m. pee.

TPBM sleeps right through the night.

[Slasher]

Nope. I work right through the night and sleep through the day but that's all changing very soon.

TPBM has never taken sleeping pills and has always been able to crash out with uninterrupted slumberity.

[Mrs Ex-Ascot]

Yes and then no.

TPBM finds that the best way to combat insomnia is to just lie back, relax and think soothing thoughts. And then hit the moonshine!

[Slasher]

Truish, but it's reading FCOMs and guzzling moonshine!

TPBM doesn't mind a nice sherry after dinner.

[Hydromet]

...or before dinner, or, at a pinch, instead of dinner. Or, perhaps, a nice port in any of these circumstances.

TPBM knows that there is a steak sandwich in every glass of wine.

[Mrs Ex-Ascot]

True I guess calorie wise.

TPBM would prefer a glass of wine And a steak sandwich!

[Hydromet]

Indeed, that is the breakfast of champions!

TPBM need a good solid breakfast and a coffee to start the day.

[Slasher]

Brekky no big deal but I can't function whatsoever without that first coffee!

TPBM can survive without coffee for long stretches.

[Mrs Ex-Ascot]

True. And for many months.

TPBM when they do drink coffee insist that it is real coffee and not instant cr@p.!
