DeleteMy bloody server is driving me mad right now, so I deleted this to avoid repeating myself. Sorry.
DeleteYes what about the dogs?
ReplyDeleteDogs = Meat. Mondo Carne.
DeleteOK, the '16' things I cannot live without. No 16. Monty and Bok.
ReplyDeleteWot no coffee?
ReplyDeleteThought about what mine would be - definitely the farmer would be up there at the top, closely followed by my son and his family, then my dog, then my friends. Some foods I love better than others - I could definitely do without ever seeing meat again - but couldn't live without cheese and fruit. I adore clothes and can never have enough. The peace and quiet of the countryside features on my list and a few mushrooms added is always a bonus.
ReplyDeleteI'm mainlining homemade icecream at the mo so a freezer is on my list!!
ReplyDeleteYou need us dont you. Who are you going to tell about all the above if you dont have us!
ReplyDeleteMaybe I should have kept it to myself.
DeleteWell done for keeping it to 15. I try to keep life as simple as I can but doubt I could keep the list that short!
ReplyDeleteHow interesting. I might do one.
ReplyDeleteGoodness you fit the term spot on for you are a right Pinklyfetter !
ReplyDeleteWhat the hell is a Flettyplinker?
DeleteA Flettyplinker ! I have no idea Cro did you make that one up ?
DeleteThese lists are something that you don't want to spend too much time thinking about....they keep getting longer lol.
ReplyDeleteA list of ten (without too much thought put into it) for me would include; food/water/health care/clothing/companionship/shelter/reading material/writing material/transportation and access to nature.
You're obviously much more philosophically minded than I am. I'm just a country boy.
DeletePinklyfetter? I never would have guessed. I only have one thing on my list and that is my wife for as long as I have her all the rest of my wants and desires are just fluff.
ReplyDeleteYou old smoothy.
DeleteCan i be rude and say that most men only need a wife, because she is the one to provide all his need and wants. (Bad Girl, Bad Bad Girl)
DeleteYou're probably right in most cases. Not here though!!!
DeleteGlad to see the dictionary on the list!
