Title: Complete or Finished
Post by: wombatie on June 16, 2013, 01:49:35 am
 
No English dictionary has been able to explain the
difference between the two words 'complete' and 'finished' in a way that's so easy to understand:

Some people say there is no difference between COMPLETE & FINISHED but, there is an explanation, as told by a Newfoundlander!!!!!!
When you marry the right one, you are COMPLETE.

And when you marry the wrong one, you are FINISHED.....

And when the right one catches you with the wrong one,
you are COMPLETELY FINISHED !!!

End of story

Marg, you must be psychic, or should that be psychotic?. LOL. I was putting up a blind yesterday and I slipped off the steps and landed on my a&*. Did I get loving sympathy??. Yes, I was told it was about time "I CAME DOWN TO EARTH".
Goodness knows how we have lasted 44 years. :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Keefie, she wasn't laughing at the time,as she was downstairs. All she did was shout upstairs,"what the h***'s all the noise about!!!!. She did however start howling with laughter when she saw my predicament. One leg caught on the step,the rest of me UNDER THE BED. It must have looked quite comical. One for youtube if someone had a camcorder. :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

P S. the bruise is now about three times the size it was and kinda looks like a photograph of a globe of the world. Oh and no requests for pictures in the brag forum. Mind you it might make an interesting pattern  :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o.

Oh what a spoil sport I was just going to ask for a photo.   ;)  :D :D :D :D :D
Many years ago (about 25 I think), when we were putting an extension on our house, Terry was up a ladder in the hall way, there was no ceiling in then just bare rafters. Anyway he had been sitting on one of the rafters, finished what he was doing and went to come down, got one leg over the rafter to put on the ladder, slipped and was hanging there. One leg hooked over the rafter and under the next and the other leg through the gap between rungs.  Well that was the end of me I could not help him for laughing. The neighbor came around to see what was funny and had to help him because I was in no fit state It took me about 20mins to calm myself down. :o :D :D :D :D :D :D :D He as never forgiven me, I don't know why.   :o :o :o :o :o :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D  Tell that one to your wife Rob, I bet she will like it.  :D :D :D :D
