The handbags and the gladrags
That your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you

actually the first one makes more grammatical sense than the second.

I have hit a Wall with the cleaning. Cannae be arsed. but the kitchen needs to be GUTTED (not like that) and my room is a pit. haaaarumph. PLus I want to make soup and all sort but it means going to the shops... argh.
