Oh I could just wax on about those eyes all night long.
If you want to answer this week's thought experiment in secret, I wouldn't blame you...
--------------------------------------------------
Scarlett could not believe her luck. For as long as she could remember, Brad Depp had been her heartthrob. Now, amazingly, she had stumbled across his secluded holiday home in the Bahamas, which not even the paparazzi knew about.
What is more, when Brad saw the solitary walker on the beach, he had offered her a drink, and as they talked he turned out to be as charming as she had imagined. And then he admitted that he had got a bit lonely these last few weeks, and although, because of his lifestyle, it would have to remain a secret, he would very much like it if she were to spend the night with him.
There was just one problem: Scarlett was married to a man she very much loved. But what you don't know can't hurt you, and he would never know. She would get a night of fantasy and Brad would get a little comfort. Everyone would be either as they were or richer for the experience. No one would suffer. With so much to gain and nothing to lose, what earthly reason could there be for Scarlett to resist Brad's fabulous come-to-bed eyes?

So what do you think? Will no one really suffer here? Would you accept the offer? Would you want your partner to? I'll be back on Friday to give my answer...as long as my wife will let me.
