'Gormless,' 'numpty:' Thanks for equipping me with some zingers for some 'friends' of mine. Heh-heh.

Saturday, is what Annie and I call ‘Molly Maid day’ when I dust and vacuum throughout. And this Saturday was no different. Then I had the brilliant idea of putting up the Christmas tree… took hours… and the carpet looked liked there’d been a blizzard… of tinsel and tree bits. So, out comes the vacuum… again. Sheesh!

And here I thought 'gormless' meant 'lacking a silver pattern' :-)
