Don't leave your beret lying around if they have a cat.

That would be perfection!
No, alas, neither DH nor I is a Jim!
We do have a dog though 🐶

DH is under the threat of death to not ever say "You look nice Jackie" 😳

Would your DH consider changing his name? Purely for my entertainment?

BathersOnTheLine · 04/07/2026 20:04

I hope you took a schmoigel around to welcome them to the neighbourhood.

BitSilly · 04/07/2026 20:06

@BathersOnTheLine DH and I are currently whether a tin of meat or a can of oil would be more welcoming!

And rename your dog Wilson if he's not already called Wilson

Perhaps a whole fish and a pineapple?

BitSilly · 04/07/2026 21:07

@BathersOnTheLine Pineapple is a good call, but pears are forbidden.

Cup of tea and building lego with my teenage son makes me happy. We talk about anything and everything. ❤️
Food wise.... Jaffa cakes 🎂
