Hi ya all, has anyone taken the time to read a good book lately?
I got given a book as a wedding gift and finally after three months of picking it up and putting it down i finally finished it!
Now here's the kicker!!!
It's a book about women for men, no seriously, a few skeptic's here is the title
" For men only" 'a straightforward guide to the inner lives of women'. ISBN 1-59052-572-8
written by Shaunti and Jeff Feldhahn.
Interesting to say the least, insightful and an eye opener!!!
ANd to be fair there's one for women as
well!!!! it's called, get this; "for women only" 'what you need to know about ther inner lives of men'. ISBN 1-59052-317-2
Now only being recently married, i can understand that #1 what do i know about my wife except she bueatiful lovely gorgeous and annoying!!!
Well i learnt about a stuff i didn't know and vice versa for her!!!
So Ladies and Gents i think we all should get the earplugs out of our ears, take the blinders off and pull our finger out and have a read!!!
WHAT DO YOU THINK???
p.s. try your local bookstore or visit these websites;
www.mpbooks.com
www.forwomenonlybook.com
www.formenonlybook.com
all critisicism will be listened to but not taken personally!

Ahhh yes, the inner life of a woman....a book might be able to tell you a fair bit and even get down to the nitty gritty of "when she says i got a headache, she really means piss off" , but it will never tell you that a woman is a non-ending book - you will never get to the end of understanding us women.
Finally a man who is willing to read and learn, who is prepared to learn what its going to take to please his wife without being in bed or the lounge or in the back of the car!!LOL!! I wish Nath would try something like this...maybe I should cut out articles in his shooting mag's and stick in photocopies of the books which i want him to read!!!!!
but on a serious note....."the 5 love languages is a good" one too!
Im gonna have a look at the girls one!! I need another book to be half way through (Im half wasy through 8 at the moment!!)
ps....been married for nearly 3 1/2 yrs ..... have a sense of hunour and you'll be right!!
Laura
And Kev.....for goodness sake, Sam desertves the candles and roses....geez I wish I got candles and roses!! I just get a "whats for dinner babe?"

Hey...you know what? There is something to say about the HIS and HERS books.
You ignorant Mob just cant see the trees for the forest!
Stop hanging $hiit on him (or her) and open your eyes!
Its just come to me...for those who remember "Handy" (from Hermansberg)
When Handy and his Mrs left Alice they left the Mrs. and I a couple of books....
One was one of those girly books about mothers and daughters and the other "Crocodile Safari Man".......
Its only through listing to this Blok.....Ma.....SNA...., Person
Its all become clear!
I need to take note of these books and follow my instincts......
Bugger off with my son and go
fishing and croc hunting and leave the girls to sort out their $hiiit!
LOL

Well thats liven a monday arvo up quite nicely,and kept us all out of the bad books and educated us as a group!!! Made us more passionate and understanding to the opposite sex!
So guys, choccies and flowers for the missus, don't forget the gorgeous thrown in there every so often, to get those extra brownie points, tell her you love her!!!
And Girls tell your man that you love him and married him because he is your HERO!
Also do the extra's to help each other.

Hey Chris Loved the comment.
i don't do magic for a living but i put fires out instead ..its simply wet stuff on the hot stuff ....and i love your comment tell your man he is your hero ,because i know at 3 am when we as a team are up against it ...we think about how much we love them [wives and children and girlfriends] but hey they are asleep......we are potentially about to meet our maker, and its always someone else in that wrecked car.....tell your loved ones how much you love them, and as often as you can....I say .
Get off the box now Tuft's.........lie down have a rest and take these pills.

Hey Chris
Just a thought, maybe the blokes that were taking the p1ss were doing so to cover their inability to read anything more complicated than a Superman comic LOVL ;-))))))))))
Cheers Pop

No Mate (Tufty's
Tours), you're a bloody Legend!!! Have a couple of mates in the fire brigade, the things they tell, like a family burned together, no smokie, or car crash or something gruesome, and heart wrenching!!!
Seriously thinking about joining!!!
Thanxs pop2jocem, but everyone's entitled to there opinion, if they don't like my suggestion, click onto another page!!! The guy next door is a ex airforce vet, he can't see his kids, divorced from his wife, after i sat him down and had a good chat with him, he realised a few things, he use to drink copious amounts of alcohol, but he has cut down and enjoy's a better life now!!!
I the eldest in a broken family, and i hated it! That's why i am 33 on thursday and finaly married, befoe i put myself accidently of course into a tree or rock wall, because i pushed myself to hard at work or haven't slept'd properly...
Can't wait to start a family of my own!
