The bridge

We are now crossing the perineum between Christmas and New Year, and today I reluctantly go back to work.

Looking up the correct spelling of that word on Google will probably be the most fun I will have today. I am not in an optimistic mood.

  2. Lateral thinking at its best to call the bridge between Christmas and New Year the perineum. How delightful of you to give me cause to plunge deep into a reverie about my very own sweet and delicate perineum. On reading the google description of the male one I decided to leave it at that.

    1. If it were not for the subject matter, I would have sworn you had given a guest post to the Hattats.

    2. My perineum required some decorum. Whilst following Arsenal on Twitter tonight I spoke to Jane. All is well with the Hattatts, just taking a blog break for a little while.

    3. Oh good. They didn't even respond to my last reference to Iford Manor. I cannot take credit for the perineum reference. Someone else came up with it.

    4. When I went to bed I thought what a mad world of blogging I live in, reference perineum.

  3. Keep jolly Tom. Only another six days to go and we can all return to normality.

  4. That word just brings back childbirth to me. I haven't yet reached the bridge and am still in Christmas mode ..... still more green Chartreuse to be drunk !! XXXX

    1. For me, it brings back the times when my bicycle chain broke uphill. Stuffing a melon up my arse is the closest I will ever get to experiencing childbirth, and I'm not going to do that.

    1. Yes, I found that word and didn't understand where it came from - surely arse-holes are more tainted?

    2. The origin of the word taint...

      It t'aint ass and it t'aint balls (or vag)...

      ahem. Now I'm blushing.
