The hoovering REALLY needs doing and I have friends coming over tomorrow.

But it's sunny outside for the first time in months.

So, the choice is...hoover or sit ourside with a drink & a book?

Too late, I've decided already - bikini's on.  Bye! wink.gif

I once made that mistake when I lived in California. I told my work colleagues that before they came over to the flat I was going to have to hoover the carpets. I wondered why they were all looking confused... apparently in CA 'to hoover' is to eat very quickly... ashamed

Now that we've got that out of the way where are the pics of today's backyard frolic in the bikini?

Also here's a hoover joke you don't tell to motorcycle gang members that you just met this morning:

Q: What's the difference between a Hoover and a Harley?
A: The location of the dirtbag...

I know, shut up Ben...
