Ten things we wouldn't want in our front rooms

After hearing about the classic car enthusiast who was so worried about thieves making off with his 1963 surf blue Morris Mini that he decided to park it in his living room, we had a little discussion in the office about what us girls would and wouldn't put up with.

Ten things you don't want your partner to bring into the front room:

1. Dog poo


2. Motor bike engine


3. Wet dog


4. Their lover


5. Classic car – no matter how beautiful it is


6. His pub football team


7. A Doner Kebab after ten pints


8. A life-size cardboard cut-out of his favourite film star, complete with flat stomach and surgically enhanced chest


9. His ‘private' video collection


10. The in-laws

And here's what we think is OK to bring into the lounge area:

1. Chick flick DVDs along with any or all of the following items from 2 to 5


2. A bottle or two of wine


3. Chocolates


4. Flowers


5. An agreed choice of takeaway meal, particularly after a long Friday in the office


6. His buff best mate


7. The fit members of his pub football team


8. Keys to a brand new car – not the car itself


9. Gucci Handbag – the one you specified not a cheap knockoff from the local market


10. Jewellery – as long as its for you not him

Anything else? Just let us know.
