A world of charm awaits the lucky few in the market for a side table that Empress Meishō used for tea ceremonies.
No, I meant that I that I didn't mention charm or being charming in the comment where I spoke about working at Argos.
I just said that I was unenthusiastic.
Like, it was 1989 and I was 19 and just wanted to earn enough money to go Inter-Railing with my then-gf, but I was surrounded by people who aspired to Argos middle-management (AND BEYOND!!) and I just didn't care.
You've got your own melon twisted, man.
Stop projecting.

So you could’ve been managing a group of two or even three Argos stores now. Think what you could have - a house in Bedfordshire or Northamptonshire, that you don’t live in because your ex wife got it, a leased BMW, stocktakings, away days, motivational flipcharts, conferences in Birmingham, even in Minneapolis or Orlando. You fool.

Re: Happy Birthday, Buttertubs!
This reminds me of how I used to buy two copies of the Highway Code, so I could cut out the road signs on both sides of the road sign pages. I would then mount them on matchsticks to add realism to my toy town.
