Book Club

I am also a Founder Member of a bookclub. This one I can credit to myself - T.W.A.T. was named by Andrea who it seems would like to distance herself from the team now people are clamouring to become a TWAT.
Bookclub evolved after a couple of hugely enjoyable evenings with some girlfriends. The main criteria for membership is that you are female, enjoy having a laugh and dont take offence easily at anything.
In short, bookclub is where we all get together for a bite to eat at someones house and get trollied.
We neither read nor discuss books of any kind - what a total waste of good drinking,eating and laughing time that would be. But to the men in our lives 'bookclub' means they are available for lifts or babysitting or ELSE.
Someone wishes to murder their in laws/kids/husband? Arrange a bookclub meeting.
The washing machine has flooded? Arrange a bookclub meeting.
Its too hot? Arrange a bookclub meeting.
Its too cold/raining? Arrange.... you get the picture.
Obviously, due to the enormous scope for meeting the criteria to arrange a gathering the local wine sellers do very well.
So you see, its always a win win situation.
