How on earth did we ever cope before the banana holder was invented.

Banana holder ffs! I didn't realise there was a need for one let alone that one had actually been made.

Mrs Nailedon has two of these for picnics. I suspect that she is being deliberately risqué.

Our daughter in law spots them. Gets it wrong. "Why don't you keep those in the bedroom?"
Embarrassment all round. I had warned SWMBO. Still my fault.
By implication we now know where your daughter in law keeps hers. The naughty minx.

There is a need for one though, in some instances. Bananas are quite squishy, and when my wife takes a banana with her to have at lunch, she, like most women I imagine, puts it in her handbag, along with everything else she owns and probably some stuff she borrowed as well. An unprotected banana stands no chance of making it to lunchtime in a situation like this!

However, her banana box looks like a banana, not a dildo.

did you know "banana holder" is an anagram of "anal dildo"
If you drop some letters... like the b, the h, the e, an n, and an a. Add an l an i, and another d. Might be others as well.

So, no. Not really... smile

Had a good one today.

Told the wife an engineer would be picking our lawnmower up for some repairs - possibly Friday or Monday, and that he'd confirm which later in the week. No problem - wife is working from home.

He rang me today (friday) to say he'd be coming to pick it up in half an hour or so.

Rang the wife on the house phone to give her a heads up, make sure she didn't start a telecall or something - no answer.

Rang her personal mobile, no answer - rang her work mobile - no answer.

Rang my step daughters house on the off chance - "oooh yes she's here - just arrived".

Asked to speak to the wife and asked why she had gone out as the lawn mower guy was coming as we had agree - her reply:

Wife's reply: "You said he was coming friday or monday" ???????

I wonder why "working from home" is seen by a privilege by so many employers?

The incorrect assertion being made however is that she was slacking off. Nothing could be further from the truth - her employer gets more than their pound of flesh.

I had an excellent one recently. We were driving one of the coast roads to slapton sands from Plymouth. On one of the more open sections the other half looked across the sea. It was a strange light, where you couldn't tell where the horizon was. The sea and the sky seemed to blend seamlessly into one.

There was a container ship in the distance. Pointing she said "wow, that ship looks like its floating!"

I know what she meant, but it was a bit of a facepalm moment.... especially as I design boats for a living...

Do most of yours sink? That would explain her surprise in seeing one float! smile

A few months back I mentioned to my wife that we should take the kids to see some of our history , The Victory , Mary Rose, Stonehenge

They've seen Stonehenge

They have not

Yes they have when they were little , I've got pictures of them sitting on it

Sitting on it, I've never taken a ladder on holiday

They have definitely never been to Stonehenge so she stomps off upstairs , spends 15 minutes going through pictures then triumphantly slams a picture down in front of me

There, sitting on it

I look at the picture and it's them sitting on hadrians wall

You would think so, wouldn't you. However the clue is in the title to this thread.... it's a gift they all have.
