I wouldn't kidnap a man for sex - I'm not saying I couldn't use someone to oil the mower.
In my day we didn't have sex education, we just picked up what we could off the television.
Last time I went Intercity there were a couple across the aisle having sex. Of course, this being a British train, nobody said anything. Then they finished, they both lit up a cigarette and this woman stood up and said, Excuse me, I think you'll find this is a non-smoking compartment.
Thanx for all you did and said, i'm so grateful dad's not dead
I thought coq au vin was love in a lorry.
i forgot to ask how's your husband Mrs O""oh, he's dead miss babs""how terrible, how?""his heart stopped beating

Everyone I meet is gay, married or crackers
Sexual harassment at work... is it a problem for the self-employed?
People always think I hate doing interviews. I don't. I wouldn't do them if I didn't like them.
I used to make my own food and ate on my own in my room.
Acting is not my favourite thing. I don't like wearing costumes and wigs.
Well, I think there's not much of a chance for me finding somebody of my age. Gentlemen of my age are dropping down 30 years to find girlfriends.
In London it's easy not to be the focus of attention, especially when Sting lives in the house just behind you.
