h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I always found it somewhat disturbing that Father Christmas keeps a large number of *Little People* in isolation just to w**k for him alone.

He only comes once a year so he's got to make the most of the w**k.

Classic, that wins some sort of ! I reckon may put you on his knee & tell you what a good little w**ker you are, maybe even take you into his grotto to meet the fairies & goblins; all happily w**king away.

Can't remember whether I've mentioned this on this thread before or not, but I thought w**king was a town in Chinma until I discovered Smirnoff.

that should have said 'China' (Think a goblin or one of Charley's minions or some other gremlin must have crept into my keyboard).

I've just been reading in the paper about a couple who have got 13 children and haven't w**ked since leaving school. The paper is trying to make out that they are scroungers, but i ask you, if you'd had 13 children in 10 years would you feel like w**king? I shouldn't think they had the time!!

Do the kids w**k though? Are they learning by example that w**king isn't necessary?

You would imagine someone in their house would have to be w**king...unless they take it in turns to not eat...

...sometimes w**king is the only way to put food on the table, after all...

My mother-in-law has just informed me that since she retired she has never w**ked so hard in her life and not paid for it. More information than I really needed but never mind eh!

Yes, you never quite get your head round the idea of your parents w**king do you? But in fact the older generation w**k very hard, even after retirement age.

I find that quite inspiring, Terri. I wouldn't like to think that once I got too old to w**k in the public sector that I would ever stop w**king at home.

Many people w**k up until the day they die and I hope to be one of those.

I'm even w**king on a Sunday, but I believe that's quite common for teachers!

Lucky you!

I just wish there was s'one around to do it for me!

There was some study done recently that said that Aussies w**k longer and harder than anyone else in "industrialised nations"

So here's to the little Aussie W**ker !

for the last 20 yeaes or so people in Britain and the US have had longer and longer w**king weeks
it must please Thatcher, Reagan and the rest of the s to know how much w**king they are the cause of

You would think with all the magical electrical whizz bang mechanical stuff that's around, we wouldn't need to w**k as much as we do...

a lot of that type of w**king seems to be going to Asia now but theres still plenty of w**k here at the moment, just a lot of it is very unrewarding

I can w**k for hours on end and the only thong I have to show for it is sore wrists...

its my eyes that suffer but then my w**king involves a lot of staring at computer screens
