Part 2 of Core Values:
a) Please review the list below and once you've chosen the "the five or six core values ranked in order of most importance to you" jot them down on a notepad and set it aside. b) Then as opportunity permits, ask your spouse, significant other or the person you're seriously dating now to read this list privately and to follow the same procedure without your knowledge of the Core Values selected. c) Finally, pour two glasses of wine or your favorite beverage and then compare the two lists you've made, keeping in mind that the number one ranked most important Core Value generally determines all of the Core Values and life choices we make. d) This information is strictly your business and for your own mutual benefit. Any further posts to this topic segment of the thread are optional. As a retired widower who is not currently dating, I may post the choices my wife and I shared before and during our marriage a few days from now. My thanks to FMF for his thoughtful contribution.

Does it make a difference who paid for the chips?
It only really applies to Britian because it is the only place you can get proper chips from a proper chip shop. Not the same with the mcdonalds 'fries'.

2. Love is an attitude of mind inspired by an object (another person or place or thing).
3. A sentimental and/or an emotional expression (parental, filial, romantic or in friendship).

In fact, I started a thread on Bacon in the spirituality forum, so check it out!

And paid for from a shared bank account.
We still get a take-away fish n chips and eat it at the beach.
Not a Kiwi thing as we seem to be the only ones doing it!
