(or rather a bit sad) to ask STUBBORNHUBBY what happened at the reunion?!

[foureleven]

Well, am I?

I know, shall i tell you?

YES damn it! .. oops, sorry. Dont know why I care so much..

It's not very exciting.

SH went to the reunion with DW and the OF didn't turn up, so he was safe.

No need to be embrassed hate it when threads are not updated.So rude.

Thanks! He's just responded on another thread. How boring. haha

was he real then? I couldn't tell...

Oh, and did he tell DW in advance in the end, or did he know in advance she wasn't going?

livethedream - As far as i know he was seemed a bit unreal but think it was just his blokish behaviour.

Oh I dont know, ill go over and ask him... hang on.

of course i am real [twirls to demonstrate]
if you don't believe me.. ask me to lunch

I basically chanced it, with a rather complicated, flimsy back up plan that luckily wasn't required

OF was on the attend list, but didn't turn up.

• perhaps she hadn't told her OH about the lunhc and was in same position.

• perhaps she is a MN reader, and now hates me

Hah ahow hilarious if she was...!

[aside - hey! a whole thread all about me! I feel like a celebrity.

dammit, I am a celebrity!

anyway that's enough about me - tell me: what do you think about me.

Much more importantly, have you solved the problem of the too high table/low chairs?

Are you still sitting on a cushion?

what was the flimsy back up?

Oh god, that is a terrible predicament... The table thing that is.

Can this be stubborn hubbys dedicated thread... lives and loves of stubbornhubby?

youre my favourite man on MN. Although you are a bit of a cock sometimes. I picture you as Hugh Grant in a 90s romcom, all good intentions and bumbling.

foureleven I like the way you are talking...

The table, please?

DH was asking the other day. We need to know.

stubbornhubby would you please behave yourself and come back and tell us what we need to know.

foureleven - I am putty in your hands.

very well then

• the table is still there and still, obstinately too high.
• I did prise a tile off the floor to see if I could pursue the four holes in the floor option... reinforced concrete.
• broken tile stuck back down again. you'd hardly know

So I plan to return to the cut-a-little-bit-off-each-leg solution.

but higher up the list of my unfinished carpentry tasks: the construction of platform that will allow the cat to jump over the garden wall without leaving dirty paw marks half way up the wall. I started this last weekend trying to pull apart an old pallete that Mrs Stubborn thought had exactly the right sort of aged-wood for the platform. I turned the pallet on its side and started to lever off the planks with my hammer..
.. but the handle slipped off the hammer and the pallete fell on my foot.

So now I resting.

(@mumsnethq - of course I'm for real!)

Thanks for the table up-date.

We are trying to buy some new dining chairs, but the ones DH likes are too low for the rest of us. Yes, the children will grow, as he says, but I won't. He suggested I sit on a telephone directory.

I'm tempted to buy the chairs that are the right height for us and possibly removing a couple of his vertebra somehow.

Thank you stubborn hubby, any other account of hugh like catastrophies will be much appreciated
