Did you know that most of us do today’s day’s work for free because it only exists once every 4 years? So, not only are you further into The MAN, but if you’re a bloke you might also be saddled with a proposal of marriage. I think it must take great courage to say no when someone asks you to marry them. Poor old Rich hardly had the words out of his mouth by the time I’d agreed to his (as he now realises) crazy notion. (Poor devil, he was the only one manners enough to ask, ever, though looking back perhaps the other lovely lads were just plain smarter and knew when to get out…mmm…) I wonder how many people out there are married because of politeness or the avoidance of hurting someone they care for, indeed love, but perhaps are not IN LOVE with? This day, above all others, probably has a lot to answer for.
