Dh fancies himself to have a bit of the X-Factor (as do all of my ILs, there's no get-together without a singsong).

For the Secret Santa someone got him a portable karaoke machine. I've never seen him so joyous- and yet never have I been treated to so many renditions of 'Blanket on the Ground'

THIS WAS NOT IN THE WEDDING VOWS

This depends upon your actions. I vote you “borrow” said karaoke machine and walk around signing all day into it.

Haha my husband bought me a karaoke microphone for Christmas. He regretted that one at 3am on New Years.

Film it for future blackmail purposes .

At some point in the future, you might need a good laugh/something to give work for his leaving do/ leverage

I would cheerfully do the deed for you based on the song choice alone, OP, I cannot articulate how much I detest that song.

You would walk free without a stain on your character if I was on the JuryGrin.

Record him? That'd only encourage him!

Why'd I be singing into it? Shock He's already tried to talk me into a duet!

I'll alibi you op.
Or I could give you a mucus sample and you can infect him with the hideous lurgy I have. He won't be singing for aaaaages.

Are you married to that ‘little Ray’ who used to be on Brookside? Went on the X factor about 10 years ago and insisted on doing all the songs in a ‘swing’ style accompanied by nauseating winks and finger clicking?

If so, Lady Hale herself (boss judge) wouldn’t find against you.

Nope you have to sing “I’ve got a song that will get on your nerves”
Repeatedly. Bonus points for adding in “just like you constantly singing does”

He got a portable karaoke machine in a Secret Santa ?!

I've never been involved in one where you were allowed to spend more than £5. Where does he work?

I'm impressed with the Billie Jo Spears
