No no I couldn't possibly eat a dessert !

What wouldn't you say?

'No, of course not my love, I can think of nothing better than watching football/cricket/anything involving a ball. You do indeed pay for EVERYTHING that is slightly TV related and it is indeed quite correct that you have first dibs at whatever sport is on said TV.'
Words that will never trip from my lips. smile

NanKate I wasn't asking if this is a trick question; I was asking if this is like a trick question – i.e. something you'll never hear me say.

Eastenders is so uplifting.

I always give 120 per cent.

"My bad" I am still not entirely sure what it means.

Bellanonna Tue 25-Aug-15 09:15:17

Yer know what I mean yeah, right? makes a sentence flow better. Ditto

I give up.

I keep my worries to myself.

Ha, ha. I've told my I Pad off!

Mind you, it's the ' wiches' that add the calories!

I'm more likely to suggest sharing a desert. A pub restaurant near us does mini deserts with a coffee or tea. It's a great idea, you get the sweet taste, but only a fraction of the calories.

No Absent it's not a trick question. I was out with old friends for lunch yesterday and when it came to dessert I was busily looking through the menu when my friend said 'I rarely eat desserts' and I suddenly realised I never said that, wish I did as I would be a size or two smaller.

Now back to the thread.

Is this like a trick question?

Coolgran65 Mon 24-Aug-15 23:31:13

I mean you'll never hear me say that....

Coolgran65 Mon 24-Aug-15 23:29:47

I think the word 'basically' is a useful word....I love it !!
