Got a Christmas card today, why this early I’ve no idea, from DH’s godparent. They have used a shortened version of my name, think Mandy instead of Amanda and the like. I’ve never used this nickname, none of my family and friends have called me it, and to be frank I really don’t like it anyway! So I threw it in the bin. DH says I was a douchebag but I think it’s ignorant.
A couple of points, yes it was addressed to me and DH, but not my DD (DH’s SDD). DH hates cards, he says they are a waste of money. DH’s name is quite similar to another different name and he always moans when people mishear him and calls him that name!
