Cheers. It was quite funny really. I think it might be the first time for the male. She lay there like that for several minutes whilst he dithered. Only for him to try to give her a small fish. Then she gave up for a while. The next time she tried he managed to get his act together but it was over in the blink of an eye. You'll never guess what the wife said when I described the events to her
