"Are Milkmen extinct?"

Seriously, i don't how she dresses herself sometimes.
Maybe she never bothered when the milkman used to come round?

our milkman is a nice bloke - I think he's a bit lonely cos when he calls to collect his money he chats and chats can hardly get rid of him!

Sounds like my postman. I suppose he doesn't get to talk to many people during his rounds.

Mrs. T phones me up this morning. "The engine's making a funny noise. It started on the way to work."

So I'm thinking of the myriad of possibilities of what "funny noise" could mean.

"I didn't drive through anything or anything."

Okay, so that eliminates something stuck in the engine bay that she accumulated while driving, or something being knocked off the engine.

I ask her "What sort of noise is it?"

She then makes a rather vague noise which doesn't really help me.

"Did you make it to work?"

"Yes, I did.", she replies

"Okay. Did you start the engine again after stopping it?" (to see if it's a temporary problem)

"No"

"Okay - in which case, see what happens when you leave work on the way home. And don't forget you've got AA cover."

"Okay"

She gets home before me, so when I arrived back at home after work, I'm pleased to see her car there.

I'm not pleased to see a branch sticking out the front of the car.

I get her out of the house to look at the front of the car.

"Oh yes - I drove over that, but I thought it went through."

You fell for it, the second she said I didn't drive through anything it means the exact opposite smile

Not my Mrs, but still...

Yeah, that sentence stuck out like a V-sign in a school photo.

According to wiki:
"On most streets in the United States and Canada, odd numbers are on one side and even numbers on the other. Often, the number assigned is proportional to the distance from some baseline, so not all numbers are used. On very long roads or in areas sufficiently far from the baseline, four- or five-digit addresses are common. For example, along the Overseas Highway in the Florida Keys, house numbers indicate their distance from Mile Marker 0 in Key West. The mileage is found by dividing the house number by 1000 (for example, 77220 Overseas Highway is 77.2 miles from Mile Marker 0). In rural areas, typical numbering may be 1000 for each mile from the nearest town center or radiating from a certain zero-point at the corner or center of a county."

Not always true.

My brother had a house built in France, and the road was numbered based on the order in which the houses were built. So you could find number 7 nestled between number 2 and number 15.
