Well my OH comes into the 52 category and I must say (apart from the fact that he does tend to nod off when I am telling him some fantastic fact) he fits in with the rest of the list. But I'm not telling him. Got to keep them on their toes.

Did you notice that the first two lists seem very appropriate for a certain young man.

I like that! Ive e-mailed it 2 all my mates!

And yes Busy Bee the first lists do seem very appropriate for a certain young man!
