PS: Did you see the UFO?
my favourite command is 'assume the position'.

XL > fsck... ay, 'at ones grand too -- especially in preening mode. But um, no, did not see the UFO.
Emma > Whats your version of the position?
- Submissively kneeling and available to be fondled?
- The candle stick holder?
- my fav: Arse up and head down

- more of a grabbing the ankles kind of position?
KSM > I knew that.. really I did.
Jen > My mum still read this - I can't be rude all the time.
UFO? What UFO? Down under? I'd love to see one someday...
