So you think your partner is reading, new idea or woman's weekly, or the latest book with Fabio on the front cover ( that's if he not old and wrinkly like the rest of us by now), wel you are probably Wrong !

It appears sales of erotic books, for (woman) are up 30%, thanks to the iPad, I sort of wondered what was driving so many ladies to purchase iPads, in rather large numbers, everytime i walk past the apple store, (silly me thought it was for cook books, and angry birds), or maybe to look at pictures of grand kids etc.

So which of our lovely ladies, who grace our forums, is prepared to put their hand up, and confirm this rumor?

O and just incase you think I am making this up, read Here

Ha. Klytia is a lovely lady...since when?

Ah Ken, you're back in full force and what a topic to kick things off! Sadly I cannot confirm this statistic with an admission/confession. I bet old Fabs looks super in pixelated form, though.

iPad - the gift that keeps on giving.

I can assure you Ken, that i am no reader of ######. I just find it not interesting seeing all that. I would not waste my time . If i want a kick, my partner is not far....that works for me and am lucky.

iPad makes it easier to read my Mills and Boon novels? :unsure:

Have you ever noticed if you take random paragraphs from random Mills and Boon novels and chain them together they still manage to make a cohesive narrative?

Just like Days of Our Lives episodes watched months or even years apart.
You might not know it to look at me, but I'm pretty radical.

Very funny indeed. Read that stuff when I started to learn English in Canada . I was crying all the times and dreaming of the Prince that would come and wiped me off my feet. I ended up frozen...and flew back home to Paris. :o
