I just think he was a bit lonely - bad time of year to be on your own, and all that.
He's cheered up now though, I've sent him to Will Cam's house.

Same as any other time... 
I can't believe he expected you to say yes after failing you. Gay or not!
It's all very strange; it's happened before though.
In the summer, I had my patio redone. And the bloke who did it, on completion of the job, invited me out for a Chinese meal.
And this was AFTER meeting my wife - so he knew I wasn't gay. Bizarre, indeed.
Maybe they're not gay either and they just want a friend.

Personally if my MOT man fails my car I am thankful, he has done me an extreme favour in pointing out that my car is unsafe & likely to kill me or someone else.
I always ask if he found anything which "just passed" but could REALLY do with being fixed.
Bill, you're such a gent.

Picnic not going well.
This is probably a little bit off subject but I recently carried a funny article on my website which used the name of mohammed in a comedy manner.... this type of thing could be quite dangerous if people take it the wrong way. I don't want to provoke people if it's not acceptable but then again I don't want to leave something out if it's funny. I suppose the point is I wouldn't be even thinking about this if it was the word Jesus instead of mohammed.... what are people's views on this?
I think some people/religions/cultures are mind blowingly oversensitive and/or insane.

Yes. And why does their God care so much about what people say anyway? Isn't He above that sort of thing?
To be fair I suppose humour is a personal thing and it won't be everyone's cup of tea but I reckon so long as you're not deliberately going out of your way to pick on, bully or offend someone then the rest is fair game.
Have a look and let me know when you see the article in context http://www.themondaysupplement.co.uk/news/cargo-plane-crashes-into-housing-complex-in-pakistan-has-anyone-got-a-charger-for-an-i-phone/
