Wow, it's a very strange way to w**k if you aske me!

So has everyone suddenly stopped w**king?


az

I would like to say yes, az, but unfortunately, I have to w**k with teenagers and it just doesn't stop...

I w**ked for eight straight days, 10 and 12 hours each day and as a result I'm now sick at home. I still manage to w**k a bit here though, thanks to the internet.

My husband has to w**k 18 hours a day. It really tires him out. Since his w**king is all done outdoors though, he's getting a bit of a rest because of rain.

Congratulations on the "42 days to go"! It seems to me that your hubby and you mustn't w**k all the time or you would have never found time the 200 odd days ago that is leading to the blessed event!

All w**k and no play makes us both miserable. We both try very hard to strike a balance between w**k and other pursuits.

Funny you should mention teenagers w**king. i happen to be playing host to a genuine h2g2 teenager here at the moment, & i can hear him downstairs w**king away even as we squeak.

He is trying to tune Mandy up,so he can play with her, which isn't the easiest w**k in the world, since she has a wobbly knob.

I do have a machine which is supposed to vibrate & help with the process, but the poor innocent young man uttered the classic phrase "How do i turn it on?" so we are now trying to do it manually.

There's nothing wrong with manual w**k. In fact, I think too many people rely on machines and devices when good, hard, manual w**k would really be best for them.

Actually, and contrary to expectation, teengers don't want to w**k much at all. And since my w**k is to try to make them w**k more and harder, it can be very depressing.

Well, speaking for myself, I'm very much in love at the moment (hopefully for a lot longer than a moment, too), so I find myself utterly incapable of w**king. I keep trying, but I just can't do it.

Glad to see everyone is w**king hard at the moment.

Yup, it's the time of year, many people are w**king hard after the long hols. Here in France,where they know a thing or two about these things, it is known as the "re-entrée". Time to concentrate on the business in hand really.

I've heard of multi-tasking, but w**king on the job (Post 17) seems to be going a bit too far. Apparently women are better at multi-tasking than men.

I've been looking at a different thread on this subject, and have been impressed by the wide scope of satisfying w**king. It ranges from womens sporting activities on inland waterways to (males)lengthy duels with senior members of the clergy.

However, Mr Emee's brand of al fresco w**king sounds positvely idyllic.

I must admit that I haven't been w**king for about a week...although I did kind of miss it, it was nice to be able to use my hands for other purposes...like drinking and playing pool

but now, I have returned...nothing to do but w**k...and I don't feel as badly about it as I thought I would

COME ON w**king class heroes, there has been very little w**king going on around here for a good few weeks!

Pull yer fingers out, join the European Union, we are are w**king towards the same end!

Stand up & be counted! (inches/centimetres; let's not be governmentally correct about this eh?)

Terri

It's not my fault I'm the only one still w**king!

"W**k on! W**k on! With hope in your heart

And you'll never w**k alone

You'll neeeveeeer w******k alooooooone!"

There, that was nice & arousing wasn't it?

(it only really w**ks if you are a Liverpudlian, preferably unemployed, with lots of time on your hands. But just look what happened to the Beatles... They were very good at playing things )

zdt

I can quite happily w**k with the Beatles playing in the background

I don't know why no one else in here seems to be w**king...I mean, I don't do it because I enjoy it...well, I used to enjoy it when I started w**king...these days I w**k because I need to...

I don't know what I'd do if I didn't w**k...
