    There we are, tape a boiled egg to your bum

    Learn from nature

    The gene was found in the cichlid fish, where the males have evolved a way to lure females close so that they can squirt sperm into their mouths.

    But males of certain cichlid species in east Africa have evolved a way to increase the odds that females take up their sperm. Oval yellow markings resembling the eggs are found on the anal or pelvic fins. When a female approaches the male, she thinks she sees an egg on its fin, so tries to vacuum it up in her mouth – and get a mouthful of sperm from the canny male in the process.

        I've used the "in your mouth" approach for quite a few years... can't say it helped with procreation

          I've been using the boiled egg taped to my bum trick for years - now you ruin it by telling everyone.

              I can do that but my wife goes mad as it tends to wake her up.
              Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

              I preferred version 1!
