    Wasn't intending to be argumentative, just pointing out that these things rarely ever go to plan and usually overrun significantly, both in time and money (though I agree it's likely they'll make a far better job of it than we would).

    She seems to be in a permanent state of being cold, ahem. Not that I'm complaining.

    A man and a parrot find themselves sitting next to each other on a plane. As the stewardess comes along, the man asks for a coffee, at which point the parrot shouts, “Get me a brandy and be quick about it!”

    A little upset by his attitude, the stewardess goes off and returns with the brandy but not the coffee.

    “Excuse me, Miss, you’ve forgotten my coffee,” he tells her.

    “Oh, sorry,” she replies, and is just about to go when the parrot shouts even louder, “And get me another brandy, you incompetent cow!”

    This time she’s very upset but returns quickly with the brandy, having forgotten once again to get the man’s coffee. “Maybe if I take the same attitude as this parrot, I might get results,” he thinks to himself.

    “Hey, coffee, and be quick about it, you dozy bitch!” he shouts.

    In no time at all the stewardess returns with two male colleagues who drag both the man and the parrot from their seats and throw them out of the emergency hatch. As the man passes the parrot on the way down, the bird turns to him and says, “You know, you’ve got a real attitude for someone who can’t fly.”

    A husband and wife were having dinner at a fine restaurant when an absolutely stunning young woman comes over to their table,
    gives the husband a big kiss, tells him she'll see him later, and walks away.

    His wife glares at him and says, “Who was that??!!”

    “Oh,” replies the husband, “that was my mistress.”

    The wife says, “That's it; I want a divorce.”

    “I understand,” replies her husband, “but remember, if you get a divorce, there will be no more shopping trips to Paris, no wintering in the Caribbean, no Lexus in the garage, and no more country club.

    But… the decision is yours.”

    Just then the wife notices a mutual friend entering the restaurant with a gorgeous woman on his arm.

    “Who's that woman with Jim?” she asks.

    “That's his mistress,” replies her husband.

    “Oh,” says the wife, “… Ours is prettier.”
