That is a long time.
Not as long as a week though
Or eight days.
Unless it's one of those eight day weeks the Beatles sang about once.
I was going to say that. I think Craig David did a song about the days of the week - no mention of satsumas though.0 -

I don't think there are any songs about satsumas - quite a few about bananas though. And apples.0 -

Probably none about oranges either, because nothing rhymes with orange. Lozenge is fairly close, I suppose.0 -

Well if you're only looking at the second syllable, "minge" rhymes with "orange"0 -
I cant think of a word to rhyme with pint.
Or orange.
satsuma rhymes with crooner, like dean Martin for example.0 -
You could sing about oranges or satsumas as long as you don't put those words at the end of the line. It just takes a little thought.0

took 3 satsumas from my bag and put them on my desk. I wonder how many work hours they will last?Nothing in life can not be improved with either monkeys, pirates or ninjas

I have some Chinese tea at work that was given as a gift. It has lasted over three years.
I suppose I should chuck it out.'Happiness serves hardly any other purpose than to make unhappiness possible' Marcel Proust.0 -

Just finished my 4th cup of coffee today.
For some reason it had grit in the bottom :?0 -
I found myself walking down the road holding onto an apple core looking for a bin. But then I said to myself ''think biodegradable'' so I threw it in a bush.0

yes that one went at just after lunch.... I am also down to 2 satsumas.
That one didn't last long....are you hoping to eat two again tomorrow then?0 -
There's a film (based on a book of the same name) about oranges - 'Oranges Are Not The Only Fruit' - now that's a mundane observation if ever I saw one. I haven't seen it.0

There's a phone company and a bunch of nutters in Northern Ireland also called Orange.
Just remembered The Fall's "Kurious Oranj" song and album. Disproves what I said earlier - though it isn't about the fruit.
It includes the couplet:
they were positively deranged,
they were curious oranj0 -
Of course there's 'Clockwork Orange' too. I haven't seen that either, but I don't think it's about oranges, clockwork or otherwise.0

I think I'll have a beer now that I'm home.

Some things in the film are orange, and there's a clock in a couple of the scenes.0 -

The cleaner was hoovering around my chair as i read that.
are you me? :?0 -
The cleaner mops my floor. Its an office off a workshop. The managers want to call it a "Technical Space", but that just winds me up.
Also, I am looking forward to having a terrys chocolate orange this festive time.0 -
all our cleaners here are African or Spanish.
Last year they were all East European.
20 years ago they were mostly middle aged white women from London
Is that mundane?0
