Cunning Plans
I once devised a totally foolproof cunning plan to attract the attention of bikini-clad women, which - as you might imagine - failed miserably. Ever come up with a cunning plan for something? Did it work? What went wrong? Do you look back through the filter of the years with a burning sense of shame?

My housemates' cunning plan:
I'm naturally quite clumsy, and in the past few months haven't been getting enough sleep, which has an inevitable side effect: I have dropped so much crockery in the past few weeks that I've had to replace an entire set.
Now this isn't so much of a problem since I buy dirt cheap stuff from charity shops and Wilkos, but my housemates have been getting a bit annoyed with having to step over me and my dustpan when they want to use the kitchen. So they came up with a plan...
When I went into Wilkos this week to replace a bowl which had met an untimely death the night before, I was informed that my housemates had travelled down there and suggested that if I was spotted making my way towards the household section, I might instead be directed to the picnic section where all the plastic crockery is housed. The amused shop assistant agreed, and kept an eye open.
So now I have plastic crockery. If this breaks I may get demoted to paper plates...
