Omelette anyone?

So my beloved was somewhat bladdered after his beer and a burger meeting with his friend. 
He phoned me when he was on the Jet Black bus, it travels straight from town to the big supermarket, from there it takes a circuitous route towards our mooring, so I met CHS at the supermarket.
There was still some shopping left in the car from my trip earlier, CHS insisted on carrying even the bags even though he was really in no fit state.
Well, he must have paddled in every wet cow pat from the car to the boat but once we got to the boat that's when the problems really started.
CHS had gone out in his tidy shoes rather than boating shoes, so he had no grip.
He had a shopping bag in each hand that he refused to relinquish.
He eyed up the gangplank, no mean feat as he can't see well anyway, then he sort of lunged, missed the gangplank entirely and fell on the bank.
I was no help, all I could do was laugh.
Fortunately he was not hurt and once he'd released his grip on the shopping bags he was able to get up and have another go at the gangplank.
This time he managed it without further mishap.
The omelette?
Amongst the shopping he insisted on carrying there was a dozen eggs!

I would have been laughing too,vi have a wicked sense of humour it doesn't do me any favours. Because I laugh even when some one is hurt whoops! I bet his head hurts today amongst other areas!

It probably does Frugal, but he'll never admit it.

Well at least you can laugh about it. And in some 'difficult' time in the future you can always remind him about it. It is always useful to have something like this up one\s sleeve.

I would have laughed too but I probably would have been annoyed about the eggs! :-)

Woops! x

Was it "just desserts"? Or maybe you could make a pudding with the broken eggs.

Fortunately although the eggs are cracked they weren't smashed so can still be used, albeit quickly.

There's noticeably a bundle to find out about this. I assume you made certain good points in options also. casino slots

I’m impressed, I have to say. Really hardly ever do I encounter a blog that’s both educative and entertaining, and let me inform you, you could have hit the nail on the head. Your concept is excellent; the problem is something that not enough people are talking intelligently about. I'm very blissful that I stumbled across this in my seek for something referring to this. online gambling
