Distant Doonhamer Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Aye but what happens when she pishes in the wardrobe? The wardrobe will be 95% her stuff anyway. Win, win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Shaker Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 On 02/11/2020 at 12:23, Jimmy Shaker said: And I see she's committed the ultimate atrocity prior to coming down the stairs - she's stripped the bed and not immediately put new bedding on it, and instead will leave it bare until the bedding in the wash is clean and dry and she can put it back on. Which - of course - she won't do. Sadly for her, she's facing an early night for work tomorrow and will have to be in bed before me, and thus will realise the error of her ways when she goes up the wooden hill to Bedfordshire to find an unmade scratcher and I'm still sat trying to make up work hours late at night, and will be forced to make it when she's tired and pissed off. With hilarious results. And once again with this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 (edited) We have one of those plug-in speaker things linked to the doorbell, so of course, when she knows that I’ve been waiting on somebody turning up this morning, the logical thing to do was not inform me that she had turned it off. Now I’m left wondering whether they’ve been or not. Eta: one can only presume sabotage and that she just really, really wants an excuse to drive into the exciting world of an Aberdeen industrial estate to pick it up for me instead.

Black and White Tragic Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Whe have the same one that's in Friday Night Dinner on our downstairs loo. On the hook, on the INSIDE of the door. It allows you to remember where you are as you sit on the throne and contemplate how you ended up there. We have lived in our house for 17 years and the bathroom is where it has always been.

Archie McSquackle Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 That's where we hang our jackets when we come in the front door. My wife does it to then, every so often, moans about people hanging their jackets there.I've offered to put up coat hooks on the wall but supposedly that would be untidy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our jackets/coats get banished to the back porch. Heaven help anybody leaving their jacket/coat in our front hall (although we have no banister to hang it on). Sometimes I would hang one of the youngsters' coats over the hoover, but that's frowned upon, too. (The hoover shouldn't be "decorating my hall" either, of course. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coprolite Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 She had a drink the other night and became talkative. She literally talked at me for 4 solid hours. First hour was almost a conversation although she clearly wasn't listening to anything i said and started taliking about random other subjects half way through my sentences. Second hour was mainly the old smile and nod from me with my eyes ahead trying to watch the telly. Third hour was me doing a lot of this: By hour four I'd given up on manners or subtlety and asked her repeatedly to stop talking, for the love of god just stop please. Apparently we were just having a conversation like normal people and i'm a fucking arsehole. Door slam, off to bed. Result. The moral of the story is appeasement doesn't work, will go straight to a war footing in future. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Laze around all morning until working up the effort for a long shower, and then coming out of the bathroom with the demand that I now go in for my shower straight away because "we need to get a move on". 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theroadlesstravelled Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 She wants to go away for Christmas. Me to her multiple times - I’m not sure it’s a good idea to go. Places might be closed, there’s the lockdown and it’s only a 4 day holiday anyway. Her to me - It’ll be fine. We’ll be careful. Some random at work to her - You’re going away? Is that a good idea. Her to me - We should cancel our Christmas holiday away. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spent years calmly arguing against her mad ideas, being called negative and miserable etc. The situation always resolved itself when someone else would make the same points as me. Suddenly it all made sense. End of mad idea. Now I just miss out the calm arguing phase and let some random in the queue at Morrisons do the work for me. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
