My problem is that I fall for it every time. When in the car she started to describe the film, I wasn't aware that she was deliberately describing a different one just to get me going. That was the reason she was hiding her face as she can't help smiling in that situation. She called me in...

I didn't read any of it, just the first word highlighted in each line. I guessed it would be rubbish. It appealed to me as it's just another form of "Buzzword Bingo" Digressing I and the contributors to another private board used to play that on the BBC's Points of View message board,...
