Well done, you got it right straight away. Men called James are thought of as hard-working, romantic, willing to commit and earn at least £25,000 a year. :cool: Wonder if anybody on here (ladies only please) are willing to confirm at least some of the statements. :lol:
My dad is James and he is all of those you say above...
My Grandfather was called James and he was a womanising Christian fundamentalist hippocrite

Most of you have got it right in one way or another: The report claimed that 'dress down days' led to increased absenteeism, tardiness and flirtation.
I tend to wear jeans to the office on a Friday because it is a half day for me and I catch up with filing and tidying up the office. I am still nearly an hour early, I have had one day off sick last September and as I am working on my own, have nobody to flirt with. :lol:
On average, a person does WHAT 14 times a day?

(I was convinced it was sex and so didn't answer before, lol)
Communication
shared workload

07-04-2009, 08:57
working hard?
sleeping?
Nope, not working hard or sleeping :D
Having a pet ( I don't so will probably die young and stressed)
Nothing to do with a pet, so you will probably live to be over 100 in the arms of your suitor :D
Pineapples
friends
alcohol free life
Nothing to do with food or drink :)
jogging
laughing
gossiping
Keep guessing, you are nearing the right track.
arguments
spending times with your mates
Friends, partners, companionship
No, none of you have got it right yet :nono:
Yoga
Swimming
Dieting
Dancing
Pilates
Drinking red wine
Eating chocolate
Not dying
Nope :nono: Keep guessing, you will get it :)
Not dying should do it? :)
No lol. Most people enjoy doing this but others witnessing it might not.
skipping rope
trampolining
going on a swing or slide

argue

pull a face
kiss
hug
The only thing I can think of is toilet humour, so I will give this one a miss, lol
No. There are places you can go to so you can do IT. :D
OK - toilet humour:
defecate
urinate
Not toilet humour :nono: Nothing shameful about IT.
It is often associated with happiness :D
have a bath
eat chocolate
Nearly there, you are on the right line. Go back to all the clues :D
'Studies have shown that doing WHAT could help you to live to a ripe old age and relieves stress and anxiety'
Nothing to do with sport, nothing shameful, you can go somewhere to do this, people enjoy doing it - but not watching anyone else do it. It is associated with happiness.
tickle
massage
facial
beauty treatments
hairdos
You do it yourself, nobody does anything to you. :D
put on a face mask

None of those, but you could do IT whilst putting on make up/face mask/dressing up :D

Keep guessing :) There is a thread on here for one of the correct answers.
olympics
police brutality
earthquakes
No, nothing brutal or disastrous
Seems you don't like this one - the words are 'Money' and 'Technology'.
How about this one:
A survey showed that women's ideal men were WHAT (name me three professions).
Just for info - for men, the public relations obsession stayed, accompanied by marketing professionals and journalists - while actresses lost favour.
Anybody still interested in guessing the stats? :searchme:
women's idea men are:
1)Footballers
2)stock brokers
3)rock stars
For some, maybe, but the stats say different :D

Brits waste £1.25 billion a year buying WHAT?

gym memberships (and this is personal - I have memberships at both Bannatynnes and David Lloyd and I am lucky if I go to David Lloyd once every 3 months :eek: I just drop off my son for his tennis lesson and hit the shops, lol)
Geez, I think I need new reading glasses, I just read your gym membership as 'gay' membership and wondered what that was all about until I read it again :o :lol:
Gym or gay, the answer is incorrect, as well as the diet stuff :D
new fads (toys, gadget etc)
clothes
Not correct :)
Think in general terms and a possible reason for the purchase
DIY tools
Gardening equipment
exercise equipment
Clothes that are the wrong size and they cannot wear - slim into stuff.
Shoes that hurt and they wear only once.
You are getting closer, Trinity :)
Wedding dresses
Wedding outfits
Mother of bride/groom outfits
kilts/tuxedos etc never to be worn again
You are getting too specific again :)
Fancy dress costumes
suits
Too specific, general term only and consider reason for purchase
Still too specific and different reason :)

So what would they report to the police? :hmm:
Noisy neighours
antisocila noise
