Have finally got around to selling a project motorbike I'm never going to have time to build. 'Friends' are coming to collect it, he's always lovely but she is as prickly as a cactus, I quite like them but I know she'll be her normal self and want to get into a pissing contest, I never engage and say that's nice when she starts

I've put up with years of her being the big I am - the way I looked at it is if she wanted the spot light she could have it, I'd go off and have a good time. She's always done it better and bigger than everyone else. She once turned around to me and told me I'm the only female she'd ever met that didn't want to be her - frankly I've enough trouble just being me without adding to that! If I go Stepford on her I know it will totally wind her up and that's something that gives me a tiny warm glow inside. I'm a petty, low person but I am human

Oh, everytime we wanted to meet up with them we would have to travel the 30 miles or so to them they'd never come and see us.

Ooooh I've got some unresolved issues here

Am off to make myself a strawberry icecream milkshake to make up for the imminent doom.

She thinks she's a rock goddess and anyone who aspires to be a SAHM needs their head examining

That's what you get for typing whilst feeding!

don't get me wrong but I don't know that a Stepford wife would be expert on project motorbikes, you may just have blown your cover
