Before I start MrG would like it pointed out that he doesn't think that IVF should be banned (yes, I deleated your protests as I knew the conversation had been a serious conversation and it's not my fault that you didn't!! :p). However, LordS does feel that IVF should be banned, on the grounds that he's of the persuasion that life is important from conception and so the loss of the embryos from the fertilisation process is equivilent to murder. Yes, he's against abortion as well.
On the other hand, I know that God is a lot more forgiving than LordS so I'm not worried......
Two stories from work, the second one (so you keep reading) is about "potatoes and bacon" (still). I was challenged to come up with something in verse....... so I did. But the first story was something I was going to say to my manager as she was saying that I was being grumpy..... then I thought better of it (which is something unusual for me!!!).
I was going to tell her that I was trying to decide whether to ask out one of the other girls who work with us, but then I thought, that I would be unable to convince her that I wasn't being serious, everybody (and I mean everybody) would know the story in about seven hours, but also, I would leave myself open to the question (if she did believe me) was "and why not??"
And this is a question that I couldn't come up with an answer..... so I thought it best not to tell the story in the first place.
Potatoes and Bacon
There is nothing so nice as bacon,
inbetween bread with brown sauce.
The smell of the frying is delicious,
but that is to be expected of course!
Now the potatoe itself is humble,
but is often left out of pie,
be it chipped, or baked, or mashed
I love it, but can't stand the eyes.
This is the end of my ditty,
I know that it is very short.
I hope that you'll forgive me
but I really thought that it ought!!
As you may be able to tell, work was quiet last night, but I'll appologise for those of you who are used to a better quality of poem..... it really is more of a ditty, but that's how I work!!!! (and yes, I spelt potato wrong on purpose!!!)
Also, the photos that I mentioned back in September as being lost are still lost..... but I'm holding out hope (as I do... don't know why, I just do.......)
