Manners......

[gness]

On the radio my lover who doesn't know he is was discussing manners.

He said that he always opens the car door for a lady and, if out to dinner, he always stands when a lady leaves the table....

Now, he can open my car door any day......but it got me wondering....

What can we ladies do to show good manners towards a man......apart from being gentle when we're correcting them?.......☺

[gness]

Mmmm....this is sounding good...think I'm falling in love......♥

And Bernie although at my age I might consider a part time dalliance.

[donny48]

Should have said and Bernie is still in the lead

[gness]

You want to dalli and ance with Bernie?....My Bernie?.....Blimey!!!....☺

[gness]

Ahhhh......nope.....Bernie is smitten elsewhere I'm sad to say...... :-(

Sob:-(

I thought Donny was my friend and you've gone and whisked him away, Gness.

[donny48]

Many things I have said and done but not that. I am merely tongue tied or should that be type tied to think I might be in your affections. I will now have to retire from the forum for today but parting is such sweet sorrow.

[gness]

Oh heck....and you've enough to contend with just now, Tilly...what with dead birds.....so I'll take a back seat......have another go at Bernie......and you can have fun with Donny.......just for a while though......☻

[donny48]

Tilly, once a twigger and to twig together will always remain a dear dear memory.

[gness]

See.....Tilly arrives and Donny disappears....poetically.......x

[Tilly2]

Gness, thanks, but you're right, I do have a lot on at the moment.

Have a twiglet..... :-)

[Tilly2]

I've scared him off, Gness. Sorry. :-((

[gness]

Isn't a twiglet less than a twig....you and Donny twig....and I just get a twigLET????? :-(

[Tilly2]

Twiglets come in greater numbers though, Gness. Have several twiglets, have the whole tin. Help yourself. xx

[gness]

A big twig.....or lots of little twiglets?....Hmmm...will mull that over, Tilly...x

[Tilly2]

Anyway........I show manners to gentlemen by allowing them to be the one to open the wine bottle and pour the wine.

They like that. :-)

Ladies have already done enough by allowing the very word 'manners' to stand.
I'm sure though that somewhere out there is Millie Tant and her circle of woe plotting something less clumsy than 'personers'.

PS Enjoying the chastened silence. :)

[gness]

I suppose my best way to show good manners to a man would be not to damage him......to keep my shopping trolley on the side away from him.... and not use his rare and expensive whiskey for my hot toddies......

But to be serious.....if you land a nice one it's nice to be nice.....I'm sounding like Mrs Brown.......♣

[gness]

.....and to take my time before replying to Douglas.......☺

I'm very well-mannered - my woman always comes first ;-p
