Tas1 · 22/06/2008 17:41

If I walk past him naked, he always says 'careful, you nearly had my eye out then'.
He thinks he's sooooooo funny!!!

I take it no one on this thread ever dares eat a Cadbury's flake?
Once, when a bit naive, I ate a flake at the canteen at work. I work in engineering... I was the only woman at the table...eventually the other woman in engineering came over and rolled all their tongues up and back into their mouths.

DH is not like this thank God, EXCEPT, when I get sweaty doing gardening...why do men like sweat???!!!

Spidermama · 22/06/2008 20:03

ROFL @ Lostinfrance's dh with his sore throat remedy.

Spidermama · 22/06/2008 20:04

I do enjoy a flake now and again but usually the guilt at downing chocolate makes me, erm, facilitate said flake in private rather than in front of anyone who might appreciate it.

Spidermama · 22/06/2008 20:04

I do eat those indecently long, bendy tofu sausages in public though.

scorpio1 · 22/06/2008 20:05

if i bend down to say do up my shoe dh says 'whilst your down there'

also sore throat, even im hungry 'i've got something for that'

scorpio1 · 22/06/2008 20:06

lol

i flash dh when he is on the phone - i get my boobs out and its so funny when he tries to concentrate on the call!

Spidermama · 22/06/2008 20:07

My dh has a similar thing about protein being good for me.

I have the Carry On music in my head every time I open this thread.

mrsleroyjethrogibbs · 22/06/2008 20:23

hahahha oh yes I hear that one about the sore throat all the time.

He calls it

Elixior of Youth

BalloonSlayer · 22/06/2008 21:14

Forgot to mention. DH also always used to have the habit of saying, whenever I said I needed to clean my teeth: "I'll clean your teeth for you!!"

I have now retaliated, saying the same to him whenever he says he needs to clean his adding for good measure "hur - hur - hurrr!!"

Which I think has hurt his feelings a little.

BalloonSlayer · 22/06/2008 21:15

Oh yeah and there was also a kind offer to "take my temperature" if ever I required the service

kerryk · 22/06/2008 21:16

aahhh yes, my dh calls it his cure for anything!!! if only we could bottle it we would be worth a fortune.

I have often been amazed at DH's ability to give me his full attention when I take my dressing gown off to get dressed in the morning. He might be fast asleep, or reading the sports pages (same thing) but the moment that dressing gown hits the floor he's there, watching every move. I find it annoying but the time it stops is the time I have to start to worry I suspect

brightongirldownunder · 23/06/2008 15:19

Does ANYBODY else have the opposite problem? FGS!
I have now filled the fridge with cucmbers, massive snags (as they are called here in OZ), long sticky buns, bananas and yet no response from DH apart from finding him permanently in the fridge filling his face.
If it comes to it I may have to gorge myself with these things infront of the postman to get some kind of attention!

kerryk · 23/06/2008 16:42

good luck with that
