Good guys they make rules for fools

OK, so here are numbers 6-10 of Ten Things That Every Gentleman Should Know

6. After a dinner party, always phone to say thank you, then follow up with a letter. Never, ever text.

Well, this must mean that none of my male friends are gentlemen. Either that or I never throw dinner parties.

7. Your socks should always be darker than your suit.

OK, but what if you aren't wearing a suit?

8. Always compliment a lady on how she looks

Well, duh! Isn't this kind of obvious? Yes, we like to be told we are looking good

9. The correct time to arrive for a 7.30pm invitation is 7.40 pm, unless you are in the military, in that case arrive on time..

Well, my friends either arrive on time, or are fashionably late, which is generally more that 10 minutes late.

10. When staying with friends at their country house, budget a £20 tip for the butler for the weekend.

This is crazy talk. I don't think that any of my male friends have friends who have a country house. Or if they do, they've never told me

So, my conclusion? None of my male friends are gentlemen. Or else, I'm no lady.
