You do know that you are being unreasonable, don't you? Was it a family cheeseboard or were you trying to impress someone - if the latter, I do understand, a cheeseboard looks much prettier with a grape or two on it. But you can always get some tomorrow.

Magrat · 23/12/2007 19:40

of course it matters

LGJ

Makes a mental note that it is all in the delivery.

I said the same thing, but I was nicer with it. And I am still here >

bracingair · 23/12/2007 19:46

i think he is actually quite sweet to bring a bowl in for them! Perhaps encourage him to take the dc's for a walk tomorrow and pcik some up?

CountessDraculaboredofxmasname · 23/12/2007 19:52

well normally yes
but he specifically asked me to get them for xmas am

Have told him he has to get more

Oh dear, years of attempting to see things from my DP's perspective have clearly had a very undesirable effect. In defence of my hormone balance, I am still oestrogenic enought to hate finding sweaty gym shorts lovingly draped over the dining room chairs. And I can pretty much guarantee that adding the finishing touches to our beautifully decorated Christmas dinner table will include fetching my wooden tongs to remove just such an item.

How nice it is to see that the spirit of Margo and Jerry Leadbetter survives to this day.

Pmsl. We've already argued (well I have argued) twice today about the shop dp did at 1am this morning. I shouted at him for not buying a multipack of different flavour bog standard crisps as i'd written on the list oh no that was too hard he's come back with a multipack containing space raiders, skips mini cheddars and hula hoops wtf? He also responded to the 'tin of quality street' on my list by just getting QS choc and nut selection which means there are no bloody coconut, toffee or caramels which are my favourites! I know, I know but i'm hormonal and I wasn't sitting on my arse whilst he was out shopping oh no I was painting the bathroom!

moljam · 24/12/2007 10:05

Lol Cod I thought of you as I wrote 'nice ham' on my list. Come to think of it I haven't checked the fridge I hope he's bought 'nice ham' and not wafer thin....

We argued before my eyes were even open this morning.

Him: I will be down in a minute.

Me: Why do I always have to get up/out of bed with dc first

[strange]

then

Me: Oh I have been paid early, more money in the bank.

Him: I told you last week you would!! [ie you are stupid and thick and I am always right]!!!!
