How long before it gets back to the husband when the whole village knows the wifes at it?

[charliecat]

Rough estimates please! Or gossipy storys to indulge...

[lou33]

oooh how big is the village?

[charliecat]

hmm, big enough, but if I know, then the whole village must know.
About 35 streets big.

as soon as he leaves the house if you live in my village the day we moved in a lady across the road came over to introduce herself. she told me about the affair the woman at no was having with the woman from no it cracks me up how they are around here.

[muppetgirl]

is it you?

[Spagblog]

What gossiping points available...shops? Pub?
I would say anywhere between 2 days and a month.

[lulumama]

27 minutes

[TheMuppetMuggle]

pretty quick i'm assuming

[charliecat]

Its NOT me. I quite like a bloke, and it turns out hes at it with a married woman, and now I cast my mnd back I know who it is.
She has 2 kids same age as me.
Just wondered how long it will take for the shit to hit the fan.

[Carmione]

I don't agree, the whole village is quite capable of knowing for months/years before the spouses find out.

[charliecat]

shops pubs launderette antique shop bus stop recycling centre village dooos...

[Carnoodleusfudge]

If you've just worked it out so has the rest of the village and soon someone is going to let something slip...keep us posted when it does!

[Spagblog]

Oh in that case, it will take as long as a phonecall from you to her husband

[charliecat]

I found out because he had a cofee with his new neighbour, and he confided in her but she works in THE most gossipy place in the village, went back, reported in and within the hour I knew.

[Lucycat]

y'see oop north the local fishwife would have been round already and told said wifey. The women would have rallied round, packed his stuff, changed the locks for her and made her a good cup of tea - oh and then got chips n gravy from the chippy to keep her going.

[charliecat]

The WIFES at it, not the Hubby, although she may be at it coz hes busy with someone else..
Id personally worry about being kneecapped myself.

[Spagblog]

Come on make the anonymous phone call, you know you want to

[lou33]

when i come see you tomorrow, if we bump into her, can i say loudly "oh so THAT'S her"

can i can i?

[charliecat]

Nah, 2 kids involved. Would rip thier lives apart.

[charliecat]

You CAN...lol I would only recognise her with her kids in her motor...but YES, some pointing action and distasteful looks would be great;)

[Lucycat]

ahh right - teach me to read threads properly

ok..... so oop north local hussey would have been round to offer a shoulder to cry on to said hubby, bought him several pints down t'pub followed by chips n gravy in a tray then moved him into her flat over the kebab shop.

better scenario?

[AuntyQuated]

depends on whethre or not one of them/both of them are local or not.

ime locals will cover for locals if the OH is an 'outsider'

[charliecat]

Thats better, so does that mean the man and her live happily ever after in scorn of the rest of the village? Coz if thats the case where do I fit in? Whine..........

[charliecat]

Local about 1 street away from each other him and her. Not sure about hubby.

[Lucycat]

they live in scorn , and much raising of bosoms by les dawson type ladies, until the hussey discovers someone with 'money' has moved into t'manor house, then she leaves hubby and moves on.

eeee see who needs exams!

[AuntyQuated]

i reckon if she is born and bred villager and her DH is from outside the village they would keep quiet.

if he is born and bred villager they will tell him asap
