....worrying indeed! I mean, how does one withdraw that amount of money from a joint account without the OH noticing? ;-) Reply to this message | Report message       3

This immediately reminds me of the film Ex Machina, the directorial debut of Alex Garland in 2015. One of my favourite films of that year. Well worth watching...no spoilers from me. I'm on the old rattler to Leeds today to watch 'Baby Driver' on't silver screen Reply to this message | Report message

Is that what blokes like? Big breasts, slim waist, trout pout and look like a teenager? No thanks. It needs to look like it's had kids, belong to someone else and have an element of danger. And you can't manufacture that. Not unless I secretly use Zero's while he's out walking the dog. He keeps it in the shed, by the way. Reply to this message | Report message       1

I did. No reflection on my morality or whatever, but after seeing the film I mentioned above it did make me think about what the future holds in store for us humans. Wasn't there some kind of toy doll a few years ago that you had to ''care for'? I think that AI in the form of some lifelike robot that can register our thoughts & feelings and react to them is aways off but I wouldn't rule it out in the millennia to come Reply to this message | Report message

What's to worry about? She won't get a headache, and she won't take all your money, house, and any other possessions should you ever split up. And if she starts nagging, just take the batteries out ;) Reply to this message | Report message       2

The optional extras should be quite interesting too. I mean, will they come in one door, two door and three door variants? Reply to this message | Report message
