He's been watching naff fishing dvds all day and ignoring every one else in the house... surely this is grounds for some kind of retribution?

A slap with a cold wet fish I'd say !!! Angry

The only possible thing more mind numbingly fucking boring than fishing is watching someone else fish. It's the most pointless passtime and frankly it should be banned. Withering sideways glance at DH.

Millbram · 12/03/2016 20:53

Oh I know! And hes chuckling away watching it like its prime time tv. May "accidentally" scratch all the remaining fish dvds. Our dd has gone to bed in disgust

Finola1step · 12/03/2016 21:08

Effing Fishing DVDs?

At least when he is actually out fishing, you can get some peace. But fishing DVDs? On the first spring like weekend on the year? While ignoring his own dc? He's taking the jeffing piss.

Apologies for all the ?s.

Isthereeverarightime1 · 12/03/2016 21:09

Dnt let him find you tube !!! Hours and hours of boredom!

Lweji · 12/03/2016 21:10

Don't be koi , I'd definitely be carping on about it if I were you ! Give him a kick and see if he'll rise to the bait .

Millbram · 12/03/2016 21:13

Yep Finola...he's monopolised the tv since 1 this afternoon. I think I could just about bear it if it wasnt for the naff soft rock soundtrack that they all seem to have. Its ruined bohemian rhapsody and 20th century boy for me forever!

If you think fishing is dull, you can't have seen one of Bill Dance's fishing videos.

ChameleonCircuit · 12/03/2016 21:50

I think you'd be better off giving him a right hook!

Badum tish!! Grin

DadDadDad · 12/03/2016 22:59

Chamaleon - nice one! That'll leave him reeling... Smile

What can he find to laugh at in fishing DVDs?

YANBU, but then you did marry him so completely your own fault Grin

It reminds me of the 10 hour (and 1 second) Nyan Cat video on youtube, it's been viewed 50 million times!

I watched it for the whole ten hours and nothing happened.

fillingmakesmevom · 13/03/2016 02:32

Nothing like a bit of wicked tuna!

Andrewofgg · 13/03/2016 08:04

Fishing makes golf look interesting. Hell. it makes tennis look interesting.

Cod almighty, I can't believe this . . . all right, let's be herring from the Massed Bands of the MC Punning Brigade!

DadDadDad · 13/03/2016 08:21

Andrew - I'd take the bait, but I worry fish puns are fin on the ground.

Andrewofgg · 13/03/2016 09:20

You'd hake the bait?

Janecc · 13/03/2016 12:35

Did he reel you in? What to do? Hook his eyes out or declare plenty more fish in the sea? Sorry it's so boring. Can't you remove the fuse from the tv plug? Then go out for a fish supper.
