It’s time for love

 

“It’s time my dear darling loving wife,

it’s 7.30, Tuesday, remember! 

It’s time to make love.”

 

“What now! my darling husband, but the film hasn’t finished yet, can’t it wait another half an hour?”

 

No! It’s got to be right now, remember what the marriage therapist said.

Remember you agreed to it. Here look! That’s your signature at the bottom.

It was your idea in the first place to assign a certain time and place for love making.

 

“O! O.K. then, just let me put the video in and press the record button.”

 

O there’s no need to do that; you should be back before the end of the ads.
