THAT…is actually, “Toot toot, chugga chugga, Big Red Car”, which is the song title to one of the Wiggles DVDs called as mentioned. But because Arianna is such a fan and she gets absolutely excited when the tv is switched on that she goes into this frenzy of just joining up words and spitting them [...]

Apparently Arianna is living up to what most women typical say when they mean something else. Let’s be honest and admit that sometimes when we [women] really mean to say ‘yes’, somehow it comes out a ‘no’. Hence men get mixed signals and well, it blows up in both faces – if you know what [...]
