....a killer's tale.... I gingerly tip-toe up creaking stair Ninja- like, each step with fluid grace ten steps away my target , unaware mirror casting back a blameless face. Deep down she knows this has gone on too long with every accusation that she'd make that it was always me that had been wrong there's only so much that a man can take. Sorry, Darling, this all ends tonight no more suffering to put me through, for it is every adult male's right to leave the lid and seat up on the loo. Beating her with a loofah now, my crime I fear that this is going to take some time...... For contest, 'Through their eyes', sponsor Shadow Hamilton

I learned a long time ago not to leave the seat up, Jean, otherwise I would have been emasculated by now. Or, at the very least, I'd be wearing my goolies for a scarf :( x
