Watch them Yorkshire Women!!!

Three men were sitting together bragging about how they had given their new wives duties to perform.

Terry had married a woman from America , and bragged that he had told his new wife to do all the dishes and house cleaning in the house. He said it took a couple of days but on the third day he came home to a clean house and all the dishes were cleaned and put away.

James had married a woman from Australia and he bragged that he had given his new wife orders to do all the cleaning, dishes and the cooking.
He told them the first day he didn't see any results, but the next day it was better and by the third day his house was clean, the dishes done and there was a huge meal on the table.

The third man said the he had married a Yorkshire lass. He boasted that the duties he had ordered her to do were to keep the house cleaned, dishes washed, lawn mowed, laundry washed and hot meals on the table every day.
He said the first day he didn't see anything, the second day he didn't see anything, but by the third day most of the swelling had gone down and he could see a little bit out of his left eye. Enough to fix himself a bite to eat, load the dishwasher and call a landscaper.....

I've been to Yorkshire and to the Isle of Wight. I prefer the North.... must be in the blood.
Now Languedoc, your other home, No Shoes..... I could live there!

Bonjour - we are in the Minervois wine region in a small village called Ste Valiere. Its about 20 minutes drive inland from Narbonne.

Its very beautiful here - but very very windy...................... We only stay here during the summer months.
